Title says it all. Most people say no. That all substances have some degree of risk. Though, cannabis comes pretty damn close. Perhaps, with a bit of pharmaceutical engineering, I believe it may be possible to create a drug that produces a euphoric, enjoyable high without any side effects. Or perhaps, there's an inherent aspect of being high that means some side effects can occur. Thoughts? Is the perfect "happy pill" theoretically possible? Or no? I suspect it may be, but the pharma companies want to sell multiple drugs so they create one that has some side effects and another pill to counteract it (e.g. the Adderall is keeping you awake at night, take valium to sleep, etc., etc.). So, the pharma companies are making $$$ off two pills now instead of one. But in theory, if pharma companies weren't greedy, I wonder if that perfect little blue pill of eternal happiness is possible. In theory.
