Drug that can make someone do whatever you command them. Urban Dictionary
Scopolamine is a drug extracted from certain flowers that can cause memory loss and confusion and sleepiness and can leave a person more passive and suggestible and reduces or cancels willpower, like hypnosis. Sometimes used by criminals alone or combined with a scam to end up stealing your money. Scopolamine is also known as devil's breath and burundanga. Scopolamine reduces or wipes out memory. The criminal blows burundanga dust in your face while you're not looking, or slips it into drinks or food, and depending on how much you took, you could end up falling for scams easier, or being a suggestive zombie, or even passing out. The antidote is arecoline hydrobromide (Arecoline HBr, Arcofuel, Arecoline), a willpower enhancing drug which enhances memory and focus and gives you energy. Scopolamine stops choline and acetylcholine from working correctly. Scopolamine is also used in small doses for motion sickness, but other medications can be used. Scopolamine can leave you in a trance-like state or even leave you unconscious temporarily. Urban Dictionary
