"As you know, this drug causes hallucination."
"Uh huh."
"Generally, when a patient has bipolar disorder, for example, or is anxious and has insomnia, taking this drug at a low dose can have a calming effect. However, at this dosage prescribed here, the patient taking it will hallucinate."
"Hallucinate…"
"Uh huh."
