I don't understand - what type of amnesia drug is required? For example, this lab:
http://memory.psy.cmu.edu/
apparently routinely does experiments induce temporary amnesia using a drug called midalozam. In general, I was under the impression that a wide variety of drugs have side effects of various degrees and kinds of amnesia, including both anterograde and retrograde.
Your proposal that consciousness might be conserved, and moreover that this might be proved by armchair reasoning seems a bit farfetched. Are you:

If DanArmk's comment is correct then it isn't important for my original comment whether there exists amnesia drugs.
If your post is correct then my second comment is incorrect.
