>> This question is very interesting, even if it doesn't really have much to 
do with the rest of the post. I'm willig to believe that you would, in fact, 
turn into a werewolf while being polyjuiced!Lupin, since it's an inherent 
quality of the blood/tissues/cells/whatever. Of course, you would un-trasform 
past an hour, since the werwolf wouldn't take more polyjuice, I think. And, 
if you took the potion during a full moon, you would be polyjuiced into the 
wolf form directly. Of course, this is all my theory, since we don't have any 
canon to back it up one way or the other. <<

Now this one is fun. The question is whether the werewolf's 'mania' is a 
(chemically-based) physiological condition inherent to the wolf form, or 
whether it is a psycological dementia which accompanies it. In which case, 
polyjuicing into a wolf form would retain the human mind (as in a werewolf 
whose condition is controled by the wolfsbane potion) in which case the 
polyjuice could be taken by the hour if a form of it managible by a wolf 
could be produced (capsules?). 

The fact that the mania IS treatable only complicates the issue, since at 
present the treatment needs to be undertaken before transformation. 

Fanfics anyone?
