A member asked:

Do iq boosting pills really increase brain power?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not usually: The medications that are currently available help with patients who have alzheimer's disease or other types of dementia. To my knowledge, there are no available drugs that increase brain proficency ina patient with normal brain functioning.
