I don't know the name of the drugs but I actually had a doctor tell me, for future surgeries they could administer a drug that would cause short term memory loss. She implied it was a side effect of the drug that would "benefit me" to forget being wheeled into surgery and everything from that moment until I woke up again. I was stunned she thought that was normal and acceptable. She admitted she gets it done due to anxiety (not sure if she bullshitting but she definitely has signs of an anxious person).
The reason this was raised by the Dr was she thought I would get further surgery done (scopes etc for cancer checks), since my last surgery was medical negligence - forced oxygen mask / pinned down etc yet oxygen not on
YIKES! I found this at wiki: The usage of midazolam in executions became controversial after condemned inmate Clayton Lockett apparently regained consciousness and started speaking midway through his 2014 execution when the state of Oklahoma attempted to execute him with an untested three-drug lethal injection combination using 100 mg of midazolam...
I took it when I went on a cruise, because I suffer from sea sickness. It was the Dramamine patch. I was whacked out, slightly for the whole time. But I don't think I had amnesia.
But depending on the dose and an individual's ability to metabolize that drug, how would you know? This is what I'm wondering....If you don't know that you can't remember something there's no way to fight back.
I had my wisdom teeth pulled when I was in high school. The oral surgeon knocked me out for the extraction and when I came to I felt weird. Like something had happened to me. But I have no actual recollection and no proof. It was VERY disturbing and I was only 17 years old at the time. However several years later that same surgeon was arrested for sexually abusing patients while they were under anesthesia. This was many years ago and I have no way of knowing except for a nagging gut feeling.
Does anyone know of a compound that can cause this very selective amnesia? I'm SO curious...
Scopolamine I believe
I found this, very interesting...

Nice find. It explains it pretty well.

Versed or Midazolam is known to cause anterograde amnesia; however, the possibility of retrograde amnesia has also been raised.

I remembered one of the scientists who accomplished this over 10 years ago and he was a scientists in Canada. It was a science journal.
