Hypospray

Hypospray Concept for Star Trek: Picard

A hypospray (or hypo) is a small hand-held piece of technology used to inject medicine or other drugs and treatments into a patient.

History

By the 2260s the standard Starfleet hypospray was designed to accept a swappable vial of medicine. Field hyposprays were pre-loaded with an inert saline solution that could carry any of five selected concentrated emergency medication. (TNG reference: Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual)

In the early 23rd century the standard Starfleet hypospray held one ampule which held ten doses of a single drug. By the 24th century this capacity was increased to five ampules each holding ten doses. (Decipher RPG module: Player's Guide)

In 2259 of the Kelvin timeline, Spock injected the Gorn commander with a hypospray full of the antidote to the Gorn virus, resulting in his death just as he, Kirk and T'Mar beamed away from the Gorn mothership. (TOS video game: Star Trek)

In 2270, Montgomery Scott rigged a hypospray to explode on impact and emit anesthesia gas. James T. Kirk threw it at a tribe of Xhosa who were trying to kill his otherwise unarmed landing party on Vehtora IV. Unfortunately the tribesmen appeared to be immune to the gas. (TOS - Star Trek Unlimited comic: "As Flies to Wanton Boys")

Hypospray Agents

The following is a list of medical substances administered via hypospray for various illnesses by usage.

ANESTHETICS

• Anesthezine

This is an inhalant (gas) that can be used as a general anaesthetic, but is more often used by Security as an intruder control measure. A concentration of 70 parts per million is more than enough to render humanoids unconscious. It has also been used as a crowd control agent and to subdue dangerous persons ("The Hunted" [TNG]).

• Anetrizine

Anesthetizes cranial nerves heavily stunning subject for 10-60 minutes. Pharmaceutical used to anaesthetize cranial nerves, such as when Voyager's EMH treated Seven of Nine. Sometimes given to patients in the throes of hallucination to give them more control over their fantasies ("The Gift" [VOY]).

• Axonol

Stun subject for 5-15 minutes; Vulcans, Ferengi, and Romulans immune; can also be administered in aerosol form, Axonol was among the emergency crowd control anaesthetics on board the starship Prometheus. Aerosol-based ("Message in a Bottle" [VOY]).

• Hyvroxilated Quint-ethyl Metacetamin

Quark tried to use some of the stuff to drug Dr. Julian Bashir to "fix" a racquetball match between Bashir and Miles O'Brien in 2370 ("Rivals" [DS9]).

• Melenex

Melenex was an anesthetic that was carried in 2260s Starfleet medkits. In 2269, Doctor McCoy used melenex to make Spock appear ill, fooling the computer that controlled the Shore Leave Planet. McCoy described the effects of melenex as "brief unconsciousness and temporary skin discoloration," adding, "It looks worse than it is." Once the doctor dosed Spock with ten ccs of melenex via hypospray, McCoy told Spock that it would take ten seconds to take effect, resulting in unconsciousness for less than five minutes. (TAS: "Once Upon a Planet")

• Nasal Numbing Agent

A nasal numbing agent was an injection to reduce the sensitivity of odor perception. Sub-commander T'Pol took injections to reduce her sensitivity to the smell Humans produced. While being held hostage at the monastery at P'Jem, she told Captain Jonathan Archer about the difficulties of sharing a blanket with him because she'd had her last nasal numbing agent over twenty-four hours previously. (ENT: "The Andorian Incident")

• Neurozine

Neurozine was among the emergency crowd-control anaesthetics onboard the Prometheus and was used to incapacitate Romulans who had commandeered the ship in 2374. Aerosol-based ("Message in a Bottle" [VOY]).

• Asinolyathin

Pain reliever; moderately reduces effects from being dazed or injured. This substance is used as a pain-killer for muscle spasms ("Visionary" [DS9]).

• Aspirin

Aspirin was a white crystalline derivative of salicylic acid, which was often used as an analgesic to relieve minor aches and pains or to reduce fever, or use as an anti-inflammatory medication.

• Bicaridine

ANTIBIOTIC

• Cephalothin

Cephalothin was an antibacterial drug used by Federation science in the 23rd century. Cephalothin was used to sterilize regions within a humanoid's body prior to a surgical procedure. In 2274, Doctors Leonard McCoy and Christine Chapel performed a dichotomectomy procedure aboard the starship USS Enterprise for Dykranus, Imperator of Zeta-Atez. Two grams of cephalothin were administered prior to commencing nerve restructure. (TOS comic: "Heads of State")

As a drug, it was used to treat radiation poisoning. Although by 2267 it had been replaced in clinical use by hyronalin, an adrenaline serum was found to be effective in the treatment of an unknown radiation left over by particles originating from a comet that passed near Gamma Hydra IV. The radiation had caused an hyperacceleration of the aging process. (TOS: "The Deadly Years")

• Lectrazine
  • Increases subject stamina to resist heart or kidney failure. - Lectrazine was used to stabilize cardiovascular and renal systems in humanoid patients. ("Lifesigns" [VGR], "Sacred Ground" [VGR], "Warlord" [VGR]).

• Metabolic Reduction Injection
  • Henoch synthesized a metabolic reduction compound so that Kirk, Spock, and Dr. Ann Mulhall's bodies could carry the

intellects of Sargon, Henoch, and Thalassa. The drug reduced heart rate and all bodily functions to normal, allowing the three to occupy the humanoid bodies without permanent damage to those bodies. Henoch secretly prepared a different compound for Sargon in an attempt to destroy his ancient enemy. ("Return to Tomorrow" [TOS]).

• Metrazene
  • Increases subject's stamina to resist heart disease or cardiac arrest; works only on iron-based bloodstreams (Human, Betazoid, etc.); Cardiac antiarrhythmic medication, used aboard the Enterprise-D. ("The Host" [TNG]).

It could be somewhat addictive to most humanoids if consumed on a regular basis (excluding Vulcans, according to T'Pol).

• Felicium

A narcotic substance produced from plants on the planet Brekka. Felicium has other medicinal properties and was used centuries ago to cure a deadly plague on neighbouring planet Ornara.

In 2375, Skrain Dukat attempted to have the members of the Cult of the Pah-wraiths commit mass suicide with promazine. Dukat intended to take a harmless substance disguised to look like a promazine pill. Because the bodies of the cultists would've broken down, it would've left the Federation to assume that he had committed suicide, and that his body was among the mounds of dust that the Federation would've discovered. This mass suicide was prevented by Kira Nerys, and the cult disbanded while Dukat was forced to flee. (DS9 episode: "Covenant")

• Strychnine
  • A Terran alkaloid poison that acts as a stimulant for the central nervous system, and causes death ("Ship in a Bottle" [TNG]).

• Tricyanate
  • Naturally occurring. A toxic, inorganic substance which forms pink crystals. It is difficult and expensive to synthesize. Decontamination of tricyanate requires the highly volatile hytritium.

• Veridium Six
  • Veridium Six is a chemical substance that is used as a poison. Sometime in 2366, Klingon High Council member Duras began using Veridium Six to poison Chancellor of the Klingon High Council K'mpec in the hopes that he would be able to succeed K'mpec as Chancellor. This was despite the fact that killing in this manner was dishonorable as it allowed a Klingon to kill without showing his or her face. (TNG episode: "Reunion")

• Voraxna
  • Dukat sent a bottle of kanar, laced with enough of this to kill a dozen Cardassians, to Ghemor's quarters. The bottle was intercepted; Sisko offered a glass to Dukat and Weyoun. Dukat refused, but Weyoun cheerfully gulped it down. ("Ties of Blood and Water" [DS9])

hyper ageing syndrome on Gamma Hydra IV in 2267. In 2368, the drug was replicated to treat expected radiation illnesses on Gamelan V and was pumped through the shipboard ventilation system of the U.S.S. Enterprise itself when radiation levels rose while towing a leaky, radioactive garbage scow. Even then, at the rate of radiation increase, it was effective for less than an hour. Later that year, up to four hours of radiation from a cargo bay plasma fire after the Enterprise's quantum filament collision caused only temporary physical damage but still required a few days of hyronalin treatments for those affected ("Final Mission").

• Immuno-Suppressant
