Date Rape Drugs

You think you know someone, then the next thing you know you wake up and can't remember what happened the night before. Most commonly this is effect of Rohypnol, also known as the date rape drug. Rohypnol goes by many street names: Roofies or rib and rope. By either name it's called it all has the same forget-what-you-did-last-night effect. Most of these drugs are used by people trying to get someone to do what they want, most commonly sex.

Rohypnol is a pill that dissolves in liquid and in usually dropped in someone's drink when they're not looking. Some ways to keep safe from being a victim of this drug would be to keep a close eye on your drink and never put your drink down then pick it up again. Even if it costs you another drink, buy a new one rather than picking up the one you started.
