Which of the following ethical arguments about pharmacological brain enhancement & cosmetic neuropharmacology are reasonable?

A. Cosmetic neuropharmacology, the use of drugs to improve cognition in normal healthy individuals, is highly controversial. Some case reports with the antidepressant Prozac indicated that patients seemed "better than well", & authors hypothesized that this effect might be observed in individuals not afflicted with psychiatric disorders. Following these case reports much controversy arose over the veracity & ethics of the cosmetic use of these antidepressants.
B. Opponents of cosmetic pharmacology believe that such drug usage is unethical & that the concept of cosmetic pharmacology is a manifestation of naive consumerism. Proponents, such as philosopher Arthur Caplan, state that it is an individual's (rather than government's, or physician's) right to determine whether to use a drug for cosmetic purposes.
C. Anjan Chatterjee, a neurologist at the University of Pennsylvania, has argued that Western medicine stands on the brink of a neuro-enhancement revolution in which people will be able to improve their memory & attention through pharmacological means.

The ethical concerns regarding pharmacological enhancement are not limited to Europe & North America, indeed, there is increasing attention given to cultural and regulatory contexts for this phenomenon, around the globe.
