GHB (Gammahydroxybutyrate)

GHB is used in some countries as a general anesthetic, treatment for insomnia, treatment for alcoholism, an aid in childbirth by increasing the strength of contractions and decrease in pain, and assists in dilation of cervix.

The street names for GHB are: Easy Lay, EZ Lay, Liquid Ecstasy, Ellie, Clear X, Liquid X, X-rater, XTC, Chemical X, Liquid Dream, Scoop, Scoop Her, Get-Her-to-Bed.

GHB is an odorless, colorless, liquid that acts on the central nervous system as a depressant/anesthesia. It looks exactly like water. It was banned in the United States in 1990 under the Samantha Reid Date-Rape Prohibition Act of 2000. It is also illegal in Canada and many parts of Europe. It is not produced or manufactured by any pharmaceutical company; instead it is made in illegal drug labs or by amateur chemists in their homes. It can be easily made with common and readily available ingredients and novice chemistry skills and the recipe is easy to find. Making, possessing and/or using this drug is illegal.

GHB is used as a recreational drug often at Rave parties and offers an alcohol and hangover free high

GHB can cause these problems:

• euphoria
• amnesia
• intoxication
• dizziness
• visual hallucinations
• enhances state of relaxation, desire, enjoyment, and decreases inhibitions
• problems seeing
• unconsciousness (black out)
• problems breathing
• dream-like feeling
• coma
• death

GHB begins to take effect 10 - 15 minutes after ingestion. The effects last for 3 - 6 hours when taken without alcohol and 36 - 72 hours when mixed with alcohol or other drugs. In very high dosages unconsciousness, or even coma, can occur within 5 minutes.
