Zusammenfassung

OTC-Drugs (zum Beispiel Koffein, Ginkgo biloba), verschreibungspflichtige Medikamente (zum Beispiel Ritalin®, Attentin®, Adderall®) und illegale Drogen (zum Beispiel Speed, Crystal Meth) haben sehr unterschiedliche Einflüsse auf die geistige Leistungsfähigkeit. Tendenziell sind die Wirkungen von koffeinhaltigen Mitteln, Amphetaminen und Modafinil am ausgeprägtesten auf kognitive Domänen wie Vigilanz, Aufmerksamkeit, Konzentration und Gedächtnisleistungen. Dabei ist die Wirkung von Koffein geringer als die von Modafinil; Amphetamine sind am wirkungsvollsten. Die Wirkung der Neuroenhancer ist umso ausgeprägter, je beeinträchtigter – im Sinne von müde – die Einnehmenden im Vorfeld sind.
