Amnesiagenic
Amnesiagenic is a term used to describe any substance or activity that has the ability to produce amnesia. Amnesia is a condition in which someone has difficulty or is unable to recall memories, such as past events, or newly acquired information. It is an impairment of the ability to create new memories or to recall old memories. Medicinal activity of amnesiagenic is to inhibit or reduce the ability to create and recall memories. This can be done through the use of drugs, amino acids, or even electroshock therapy. The goal is to reduce the amount of information stored in the brain in order to reduce the risk of memory overload. This could be beneficial for people with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, as it could reduce the amount of stored memories that could cause confusion or disorientation. It could also be used to reduce the risk of post-traumatic stress disorder in those who have experienced a traumatic event, as it could reduce the amount of traumatic memories stored in the brain.
