gamma hydroxybutyrate, more commonly known as GHB.
GHB
-- known in street terms as Salty Water, Liquid G and Grievous Bodily Harm -- has effects similar to alcohol
consumption, costs $3 to $5 a dose and creates intoxication followed by deep sedation.
Effects of the drug -- taken as a
capsule or as a grainy, white or sandy-colored powder dissolved in water or alcohol -- begin almost immediately and last
one to three hours, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse.
The Drug Abuse Warning Network said in 1999 that GHB played a role in nearly 3,000 emergency room visits, up from
638 in 1996 and 55 in 1994. About 5,700 overdoses were tracked from 1990 to 2000. Of those, about 60 people died.
Thursday, July 18, 2002;
The notorious "date-rape drug" GHB won
government approval yesterday to treat a rare
but dangerous complication of the sleep
disorder narcolepsy, but it will be sold under
some of the most severe restrictions ever imposed on a medicine.
Throughout the 1990s, the government cracked down on illegal use of GHB, which was being
abused as a party drug, sex and athletic enhancer and, because it can knock people out, a date-rape
drug. Several dozen deaths are blamed on the chemical's abuse.
Orphan Medical's version of GHB, to be sold under the brand name Xyrem, marks the first
FDA-approved treatment for cataplexy.
Originally developed as a surgical anesthetic, GHB was pulled off the market because of side
effects: It depresses breathing and can cause coma, or death.
Then in 1990, some companies began selling it as a dietary supplement, and use as a recreational
drug -- under such names as Georgia homeboy, cherry meth and liquid ecstasy -- took off.
Colorless and odorless, it made headlines when people slipped it into drinks, knocking out victims
who often had no memory of what happened.
The Drug
Enforcement Administration has blamed GHB for at least 58 deaths and 5,700 recorded overdoses
since 1990.

KETAMINE
Trade name Ketalar, Ketajet, Ketaset
A.K.A. Special K or Ket or Vitamin K
By Trinka Porrata
Abuse of ketamine (pronounced Kee-ta-meen) goes hand in hand with gamma hydroxy butyrate (GHB) and
MDMA (Ecstasy).
Where you find one, you will likely find the others. All three are very popular with the RAVE party
crowd. Ketamine hcl, a cat tranquilizer and the most commonly used anesthetic in the Vietnam War, is also used
in sexual assault on occasion since it puts the victim in a frozen state for at least a brief period of time.
It was big
in the 70Ís with New Age types like Dr. John Lilly (the model for the William Hurt character in the movie Altered
States) and Timothy Leary.
Ketamine comes in injectable form, liquid, for legitimate use. It is most commonly dried (oven or microwave or air). The
crusty residue is ground to a fine powder and is then most commonly inhaled.
In order for a vial of ketamine to be in an abuserÍs hand, someone has already smuggled it in from Mexico or
robbed or burglarized a vet clinic or pharmacy, or in some other manner diverted the product for illicit use.
In spite
of that fact, ketamine is a Schedule III Controlled Substance. It should more appropriately be a Schedule II
substance so that doctors and vets have to control their inventory of ketamine and provide security for it.
Ketamine is essentially a less-potent version of PCP. While ketamine and GHB and MDMA provide out of body
experiences and whack reality quite a bit, it is still a bit below the out-to-lunch level of PCP trips. But, of course,
that varies with the amount taken and other drugs combined with it. And, flashbacks from ketamine are common.
One Ket user stated, If you take enough it will give you a preview of your own death, put you in contact with
seraph-like entities, and convince you that youÍve just seen God in a disco ball.î
True RAVERS boast that they
donÍt drink and drive like their parents. Instead, they plan to spend 14 hours or so at a party.
They do their drugs
and more drugs, and pass out, and then wake up and drive. With increasing ñsemi undergroundî (such as at
fairgrounds and other unsuspecting locations) and ñabove groundî (setting up special events at legitimate clubs
and facilities) RAVES, there is an increase in driving under the influence issues.
This is partly because these
events have closing times, dumping the partygoers into the street under the influence of their drugs. Above
ground RAVES typically involve alcohol also.
Like GHB and Rohypnol and MDMA, ketamine has been around for a long time. Abuse levels wavered in the
1980s but during the 1990s have been on a steady rise. . Physicians also sometimes personally abuse it. For
example, the California Medical Board has investigated and taken the license of one plastic surgeon that liked to
take it prior to doing surgery. Besides the techno music RAVE set, ketamine is commonly encountered in
homosexual communities.
Ketamine is a psychedelic anesthetic classified medically as a dissociative anesthetic, discovered by Dr. Cal
Stevens of Wayne State University in 1961. Heavily used on the battlefields of Vietnam, it is used today for
short-term surgical procedures in both animals and humans. For human consumption, it is marketed as Ketalar
by Parke-Davis.
It is sold legitimately only to hospitals and physicians. Since it does not depress critical body vitals as much as
other anesthetics, it is often used in procedures with burn victims, for example.
It produces a dissociative state in
the central nervous system in which amnesia and profound analgesia (loss of pain) are induced, though the
patient does not appear to be asleep. This ability to induce a lack of awareness to the environment is the effect
abusers crave.
It is NOT a ñtake homeî drug that a vet would ñprescribeî or give to a pet owner. DonÍt fall for the
line, Oh, my vet gave it to me for my cat.
It may produce pleasant dream-like states, vivid imagery, hallucinations and possibly extreme delirium. This
usually lasts only a few hours. Excitement and visual disturbances can recur days or weeks after exposure to
ketamine; the problem with ñflashbacksî may be greater with ketamine than with other hallucinogens. It also
produces ataxia, slurring of speech, dizziness, confusion, blurred vision, anxiety and insomnia. It can also cause
cessation of breathing, cardiac arrest, brain damage and death.
Signs of being under the influence may vary greatly. It may product bursts of energy, disorientation and
mild-to-severe hallucinations. The effects are much briefer than PCP, lasting only 30-60 minutes versus hours. In
larger doses or mixed with alcohol, it may produce vomiting (which is also commonly associated with GHB use).
It is not produced clandestinely, since it involves a complicated, multi-step synthesis and because the necessary
chemicals are not readily available. It comes in injectable form, liquid, for legitimate use.
It is most commonly
dried (oven or microwave or air). The crusty residue is ground to a fine powder and most commonly inhaled.
The
liquid may be injected, applied to smokable material or consumed in drinks. Powdered K has been encountered
in one-inch ziplock baggies, paper folds or capsules.
Amnesia may be present for one to two hours. A dose of just 0.07 grams of powder may produce common
symptoms of intoxication and a mechanical buzzing in the userÍs ears. Users of 0.2 grams may enter the mellow,
colorful ñK-land,î while 0.5 grams is more likely to take you to the ñK-Hole,î with out-of-body, near death
encounters, hallucinations and delirium, etc. Effects usually last an hour or less, but judgement, coordination and
senses may be affected for 18 to 24 hours.
Most commonly called Ket, K or Special K, it may also be referred to as Green (apparently for the green label on
the Ketajet box). Other names include 1980 Acid, Super C, Vitamin K, Super Acid, Special LA Coke, Baby Food
(users sink into blissful, infantile inertia) and God (because users often are convinced they have met their
maker), Jet (Texas), Honey Oil, Blast, and Gas. A dose is called a ñbump.î The K-hole is where you go when on it.
K-head is a user. Calvin Klein refers to a combo of cocaine and ketamine. Product 19 refers to a combo of MDMA
and ketamine.
While ketamine is approved for commercial use as a veterinary product in cats and monkeys for short-duration
surgery or immobilization, it is also used in human medicine.
For example:
Ketamine is still used as an anesthetic for children in whom the unpleasant emergence reactions arenÍt
an issue.
Ketamine was used for battlefield injuries (Vietnam and elsewhere) for rapid induction.
Ketamine has been used for repeated procedures such as radiation therapy and the changing of burn
dressings in which analgesia (pain reduction) is desired by deep anesthesia is not required or may even
be dangerous (depressing vitals).
Tolerance and psychological dependence can develop with daily exposure. Chronic users may have short-term
memory loss, impaired vision or attention span limitations. A number of Ketamine-related deaths have been
recorded across the nation.

Rest in Loving Peace our children
Hillbrow with its corruption and violence, slum landlords, crooked police, strip-joints and night clubs,
drug-lords, pimps, brothels and massage parlours, prostitution, sex buyers, and overall decadence have
become the burial grounds for our children.
Some of our children died of Wellconal (pinks) OD, others from heroine or more violently from crack cocaine
(rocks) OD's.
Many deaths were as the result of continued physical and drug abuse - the girls died of
septicemia, thrombosis, heart failure, pneumonia, malnutrition, Aids, etc. As the victims of sexual perversions
many girls were raped, mutilated and murdered. With their miserable lives becoming unbearable -
some of
our heartbroken children chose the only way out left for them - they would cop-out by committing suicide.

- Drug addiction
The overdoses took place in Minnesota, Texas and Florida and were blamed on 1,4-butanediol, which turns to GHB in
the body.
Butanediol is used as an industrial solvent and is also included in supplements sold under names such as Thunder
Nectar, InnerG and Zen.
Butanediol can cause dizziness, seizures and coma, and can slow breathing to dangerous levels. It can intensify alcohol's
effects and is also said to be more dangerous when taken with other depressant drugs.
GHB, or gamma hydroxybutyrate, is sometimes used at all-night rave parties. It is known as a date rape drug for its
ability to incapacitate people and leave them vulnerable to sexual assault.
Ketamine can reproduce all features of the NDE,
including buzzing/ringing/whistling sounds at the
beginning, travel through a dark tunnel into light at
high speed, the conviction that one is dead,
'telepathic communion with God', intense visions, life
reviews, out-of-body experiences, mystical states and
transpersonal phenomena. Thus ketamine can release the
Bardo Body from its Earthly mooring, to transcend the
limits of time and space as described in The Tibetan
Book of the Dead.
In both a near-death experience and a ketamine
experience, there may be analgesia (inability to feel
pain), apparent clarity of thought, a perception of
separation from the body (an out-of -body experience),
visions of landscapes, beings such as 'angels',
'beings of light', people including partners, parents,
teachers and friends (who may be alive at the time),
and religous and mythical figures. There may be
interaction with these figures, who are sometimes
(although not always) perceived as helpful. Euphoria
is common.
