I forgot to put this in my previous review....if a person was dosed with a love potion knowing what had happened to other victims would they have a better chance at resisting it? After all, Neville is well aware of what Dumbles and his pet potion pushers did. Would the victim be able to fight the compulsion before it took firm hold? Dumbles might find himself begging the Aurors to arrest him before Neville and his grandmother are through with him! (snicker) In fact the Longbottom Family Chronicles might gain a series of chapters detailing how Madam Augusta and Neville deal with the Pimp of Hogwarts. As I know from personal observation, elderly well bred ladies can be rather vicious in dealing with presumptous pests. (shudders, remembering my mother and late grandmother in action) There are some people it's not wise to cross, or even think of crossing. It's going to be a great chapter to read! ^5's!!!!

Well, in as much as both Harry and Hermione could throw off the thrall as soon as they knew about it, I'd say yeah (though truthfully, I never really thought it through in that way)
