Pill forms - surveying the canteen at lunch, Megan asked the question: in which form of a study drug would you want to take? 

Responses: 

- a pill or anything orally, as its quicker and then it's done 

- something you dissolve but only if its a nice flavour 

- not like other vitamin drinks 

- a pill 

- something in the routine of the morning, e.g. tea or coffee 

- a sweet of some sort could be fun, less daunting - sweets!! 

- juice, like a really nice juice 

- dissolving into a drink, then its more gradual and not as intense 

- a pill, then it's done 

After talking to different people initially everyones immediate reaction was a pill. 

However after explaining it could exist in different forms or situations such as a morning drink, people opened up to the idea. 

Drugs already exist in pill or casual forms, thus makes it feel more 'real'. 

However the positives this in liquid form or as a dissolving substance became appealing due to being able to embed it into your natural daily routine or less daunting than taking a pill. 

The research was undertook in an art institution with art students, thus designing the product for this target audience would be appropriate.
