These chemical agents produce temporary disabling conditions that can be physical or mental and persist for hours or days after exposure to the agent has ceased?

Chemical agents that produce temporary disabling conditions are often referred to as "incapacitating agents." These substances can induce various effects, including physical incapacitation or psychological disturbances, and may lead to symptoms like confusion, disorientation, or loss of motor control. Their effects can linger for hours or even days after exposure has ended, impacting an individual's ability to function normally. Such agents are sometimes used in law enforcement or military operations to control crowds or incapacitate individuals without causing permanent harm.
