Nootropics are a group of medicinal substances that can improve human thinking, learning, and memory, especially in cases where these functions are impaired. Anxiolytics are medications used to prevent or treat anxiety symptoms or disorders. Hypnotics are used to induce, extend, or improve the quality of sleep and reduce wakefulness during sleep. Psychostimulants are drugs that can significantly influence cognitive and affective functioning and behaviors.
