Being tossed around today is using dimethyl sulfoxide (I think that's
the
spelling) or DMSO mixed into drugs to cause the drug to take effect
almost
instantaneously. mixed with DMSO a little artificial flavor dropped on
the
skin is immediately tasted and smelled by the subject. Drugs for pain
killing
and trauma application could be jetstreamed into the system. This is
still
highly experimental, and I don't know the drawbacks of it, for all I
know it's
a deadly carcinogen, but . . . ?
Other applications mix it a fine aerosol to make contact with skin or
mucous
membrane with a noxious chemical like skunk scent or the liquid fire
extracted
from the hottest chilies. How's that for a non-lethal weapon (another
thread
going around).
