Brief Answer:
nootropics like piracetam.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome here.

There are some drugs known as cognitive enhancers which you may find helpful.
These are drugs like piracetam (available as OTC in some countries).

However, there is no drug whose efficacy is absolutely established as a memory enhancer.

Sime supplements containing vitamin C and E, omega 3 fatty acids and ginseng are also reported to enhance memory.

Kindly discuss this with your doctor.

Hope this helps.
Take care.
Thanks.
