Just decided to post ideas I had for The Cure in my story, just for fun!

Butiremsos
Liquid Drink - Name is Robitussem with the letters re-arranged. Tastes like strawberries and moldy lemons, and goes down your throat as smoothly as a pack of hedgehogs.

Phartax
Pill - Name is a parody on Fart Tax (almost introduced to NZ farmers due to cow farts contributing to Global Warming). Many who take this, which includes those not on The Spectrum, have allergies to some of the ingredients used. Also contains a moderate, yet safe, amount of nicotine so that even if you are allergic, you'll want to take it again (and it almost forces some to take it out of addiction).

Fertizil
Liquid Applicant - Is applied on scalp in a similar way to liquid flea treatment, although it leaves the distinctive dry hair (like after you've used hair gel). Repeated application in the same area causes loss of hair in the area applied.

Lammox
Nasal Spray - Is slower to work than other methods, but has no known side-effects or downsides aside from the usual nose irritation soon after spraying. The taste in the back of the mouth after spraying tastes unusually like Rock Melon


I know I won't use those ever, but it's intriguing, no?

KBABZ,
"Phartax" sounds likes a terrible name for a dog, an unfortunate beagle.

Phartax is my favorite just because I like the word. I think you should have it sprayed on vegetables and fruit and fed to livestock. That way the general public would not be able to avoid it. Just picture in your mind the little planes flying over and spraying it. You would never know if they are spraying for mosquitos or Autism.

Phartax sounds kinda like Beano. "Take Beano before, and there'll be no gas."

Painintheaspie: A thick gelatenous and acidic fluid injected into the AS afflicted's butt. It cures AS for a day at a tiime (requires daily injection) by causing so much pain that the person has no remaining will to be aspie.

AspieNo: A small metellic pill delivered at a great velocity. Guaranteed to end a person's AS behavior permanently.

ElectroCure A bluetooth device delivering shattering sounds to the aspie ear. No positive effect known' but it honks them off but good.

Nice to see some positive reaction! I think they all sound like cliche' tablet names!

If we take away the fact that we don't want to take it (but if you do, ignore that statement), what do you think will happen with The Cure? Will it turn into some kind of Spectrumite scandal?

Ever notice how all these drug names sound like names from a 1950's sci fi movie? Let me demonstrate:

"I introduce you to Xanax. Prozac of the third House of Questor, Planet Viagra."

"Hello, I bring you desperate news of our continuing conflict with the dreaded Vioxx."

The Strawberries and mouldy lemons.... you could market it in differnt flavours, for kids that have different sensitivities to certain medicinal tastes....

Fish and Beetroot

Corn and Onoin

Grape Juice and French Fries (Boiled in Sugar! ) - you could call it a Toffee Frie Thick shake. , I am picturing the Logo of a sugar coated grape with potatoe chips for legs.

even better

saw dust and manure.... it's got this real grainy texture and smells like - s__t --but it actually would go down pretty easily - sticking to the walls of your throat, giving you that 'extra special' after breath. -and if you hold up a lighter when you breath out, it makes for good party tricks - the kids would love it!
You could call it dragon breath.
