How it is used

GHB was first manufactured and studied in the 1960s and used as a general anaesthetic. Also it was also widely available in the 1980s as a dietary supplement and bodybuilding product. It has since been withdrawn from use in many countries because of unwanted side effects. It is now an illegal (illicit) drug in Australia. GHB is sometimes used to spike drinks and has been involved in cases of sexual assault. It is easy to slip it into a drink, because it has no colour or smell and it can cause drowsiness, sleep and short-term memory loss. This means that victims may not be able to resist or recall a sexual assault. For this reason, it is sometimes known as a ‘date rape‘ drug. Buy GHB online

• a coloured liquid
• crystals or powder (this is less common).

GHB – dependence, tolerance and withdrawal

GHB dependence can be psychological, physical or both. People who regularly use it can develop a tolerance and dependence very quickly. This means they want to take larger and larger doses to try and achieve the same effect. However, this tends to increase the intensity of the unpleasant side effects instead.

If you are physically dependent on GHB and you stop taking it, you may experience withdrawal symptoms because your body has to readjust to functioning without GHB.
