Redhistak 6 is an oral or injected stimulant for suppressing the need for sleep. The normal dosing is one every 12 hours. Side effects, if used correctly, are a mild loss of hand-eye coordination and slight dizziness. Three doses within 24 hours makes the side effects worse and can cause euphoria. Four doses within 24 hours will result in severe nerve damage or death in two to five hours unless an antidote is administered. Most navies and some merchant firms have banned the use of Redhistak 6. Originally developed by SuSAG, but marketed by a variety of companies.
