langetamine

Langetamine is a fictional chemical compound frequently referenced in science fiction, cyberpunk lore, and role-playing materials. It has no verified existence in real-world chemistry databases and is not recognized by pharmacopoeias or regulatory agencies, making it a narrative rather than a scientific substance.

In stories, langetamine is typically depicted as a dissociative psychoactive agent with rapid onset and variable duration. It is often described as producing detachment from the body, altered perception of time and space, analgesia, and vivid sensory imagery. The exact pharmacology, dosage, and routes of administration vary by author, and most depictions emphasize cautionary or dramatic elements rather than practical use.

Because langetamine is fictional, there are no real-world synthesis methods, safety data, or dosing guidelines. Some writers borrow from real dissociatives to evoke tone, but such references are speculative and not intended to be instructional. As a narrative device, langetamine is sometimes used to explore themes of consciousness, addiction, and the social impact of novel psychotropic substances.
