A knockout capsule[1] is a small case that contains an inhalant capable of inducing temporary paralysis. Such a capsule has a very-limited effective range, requiring the user of the capsule to place it under the intended victim's nasal passages.
Thane uses one on Vickers during the scuffle with Haals and Wolfe on UIY 1138 (TOS: "The Gun on Ice Planet Zero, Part I").
