Rohypnol

Rohypnol (otherwise known as roofies or the date rape drug) is a sedative with no taste or odor when dissolved in a drink. It causes users to feel drowsy, forgetful and disoriented.

  • Rohypnol is more dangerous when mixed with alcohol
  • Rohypnol causes amnesia or blackout – users don’t remember what they said or did, which makes it easy for others to take advantage of them
  • You can become dependent on Rohypnol
  • Withdrawal symptoms range from headache, muscle pain, and confusion to hallucinations and convulsions
  • Common street names: forget-me pill, Mexican valium, R2, roche, roofies, roofinol, rope
