Futuristic Medicines

What other futuristic medicines might be appropriate for the Traveller setting? I mean, we recently had the discovery of injectible oxygen at TL 7/8; there's got to be more out there.

Not sure but, gaining a FULL understanding of DNA, genetics, et al will bring HUGE & incredible advances to medicine as a science. Decide at what TL this occurs IYTU and have fun. Full body rejuvenation, easily eradicating cancers, growing new organs for people, genetic engineering, etc.
 
Heh, it was just candy that came in one of those white paper bags that you get at a pharmacy, and with a fake perscription on it. That was back in the mid 80s or thereabouts, and the Asian girl behind the counter charged me $13 smackers for a jar.

And, like most medicine, the candy didn't even taste good. It was like a generic hard coated candy that was all sugar and no flavor.

No wonder I was more PO'd afterwards. :mad:
 
OK, I know we've had a discussion of stacking folks like cordwood in a container using Fast Drug. Can anyone point me to where that was? And, could you deliver it in a way that you could stretch the phenomenon to 3 weeks? Without opening the container and going in there to administer another dose, that is?
 
That seems to be all about low berths. But, it's useful for my purposes. Thank you.

Oh, and just to clarify - I was asking about delivering the drug so the effect was stretched out, NOT delivering the answer to the question stretched out over three weeks........
