Fisstech
From Witcher Wiki
Fisstech is a drug similar in appearance and effect to cocaine, but it's taken more like snuff: inhaled via the nose or applied to gums, but as with opiates and other narcotics in our society, it can also be used in medicine as an anaesthetic.

[edit] In The Witcher computer game
"Fisstech is a popular narcotic among affluent youth and members of Temeria's underworld. Powerful crime organizations jealously guard the secrets of its production. Although the laws of the kingdom forbid the drug's sale, fisstech is a source of huge profits for the bosses of the criminal underworld."
The Salamandra control the production and the trading of this drug in Vizima. It is usually consumed through the nose which leads to cold like symptoms, mostly sneezing. Another way of consuming the drug revealed in the game is to rub it under the foreskin: Geralt describes this to Jethro as the most effective way: "...where you can fold back your skin, Jethro."

[edit] Notes
- Fisstech has few beneficial effects; on the contrary, the narcotic causes its user to feel stunned and lose consciousness, but as an anaesthetic, this behaviour is desirable. Shani has used it that way.
- Further information about this drug can be gleaned during the Anatomy of a Crime quest.
- The elves refer to this drug as "White Death".
- Not everyone thinks fisstech is bad. The Vodyanoi accept it as a tribute. Fisstech can be purchased from Coleman. Additionally, the Order armorer and the Murky Waters blacksmith both buy and sell it.
- If you "experiment" and create fisstech without first having the recipe, it seems to be the one potion that does not require consumption to add the journal entry.
