I remember a British science fiction story from years ago (~50) about people getting implants that would indicate whether or not they were attracted to other people. Eventual aim was to make it so they would indicate if people were lying or not. It was opposed because it would lead to the death of the British political system as we know it.
Actually, a truth serum would only cause you to tell what you believed to be the truth. Pathological liars, such as our current crop of presidential candidates, would have no problems with the stuff.

Neither one is going to survive one day being truthful with everyone they meet.

You’ll have no choice if the serum isn’t temporary.

They should give this to the criminals in prison and then 3 days later give them weapons; they’ll kill off each other.

Sell it as a low calorie water substitute that won’t cause temporary water weight gain and watch the world melt down.

If that guy utters the famous paradox “I always lie”, the universe will implode.
