Narcoanalysis refers to the use of truth serum. Narcoanalysis is a term which is derived from the Greek word narkc which means "anesthesia" or "torpor" and is used to describe a diagnostic and psychotherapeutic technique that uses psychotropic drugs, particularly barbiturates, to induce a stupor in which mental elements with strong associated affects come to the surface, where they can be exploited by the therapist.
