In the late 18th century in forensic science started to use the term “truth serum". Italian investigator Monteggia for the first time gave the suspect an injection of opium in order to give him “unleashed” language, and he put all the information that was of interest to law enforcement. In scientific circles receive from the person truthful testimony under the influence of a variety of chemicals called narcoanalysis. The specified method, and hypnosis is often used in cases where the interviewee for one reason or another is unable to recall any events of interest.

In the 20-ies of the last century Texas Dr. E. house conducted research on the use of scopolamine (“truth serum") in forensic science. He asserted that his method under certain conditions a win-win. The house has been told that he can extract from the subject all the interesting information. The doctor was sure that scopolamine, “unleash" the language of any person, and the developed method is also reliable as fingerprinting fingers.

It was Later established that some criminals can lie, even under anesthesia, and the people giving truthful testimony, sometimes get confused while in this state. To date, narcoanalysis in forensic science is very rarely used, however, there is also other information that “truth serum" is actively used against obstinate offenders.

The Interviewee can be a valuable source of information by which the investigator will focus its efforts in a specific direction of the investigation. According to the legislation of Western countries, narcoanalysis is done in a medical hospital. Before carrying out this procedure formed a working group that included anesthesiologists, psychiatrists, representatives of the defense and prosecution, judges, psychologists, scientists, experimentalists, experts in the foreign language, the investigators.

It Should be noted that a prerequisite for the conduct of psychoanalysis is the scientific usefulness and objectivity, knowledge of the details of the case and the personality characteristics of the suspect. Professionals say that this procedure is safe for health, but the truth is will certainly be installed. All the drugs that are used to narcoanalysis refer to barbiturovoj group. These funds are administered intravenously. We can say that sodium-amytal, scopolamine and sodium pentothal – “truth serum", which is used to obtain truthful testimony.

When introduced into the body of the medications listed above occurs twilight state, which is sometimes called ‘semi-consciousness”. In this case, the patient is disconnected “censorship of consciousness”, he has released a true, deep feelings.

After the introduction of drugs with the suspect first talk on neutral topics that do not relate to the crime. All statements are recorded. After anesthesia, the suspect is a film which has all of his testimony. Professionally conducted questioning helps the investigators to get the facts about the innocence or guilt of the suspect.

“truth Serum,” developed by the Soviet special services. I should say that our compatriots are quite successfully coped with the task. In the years of the second world war in the Arsenal of the NKVD was a unique treatment that have shown analgesic, tonic, soporific and sedative effect.

Scientists continued to search for “padovanni” preparations. In the forties of the experts  seriously undertook the study of the mescaline. This substance belongs to the group of drugs which are derived from the Mexican cactus. It was experimentally proved that under the influence of mescaline "untied" language and completely disappears will. However, he shows a short-term effect.

American CSU with the same purpose, tested the marijuana. The experiments were not successful. Later the Americans said the drug LSD – “truth serum". At home to create this tool almost impossible, because even today nobody will tell, what is this drug. As such funds may serve alcohol.
