99.5% of youth don't use GHB

GHB (gamma-hydroxybutyrate) is a central nervous system depressant. That means it makes you sleepy, and slows down your breathing and heart rate. GHB is made in illicit labs. The chemicals and processes used vary from lab to lab, as does the strength and purity of the final product. When taken as a recreational drug, and especially when taken in combination with alcohol or other drugs, GHB can be extremely dangerous.

With GHB there is only a slight difference between a dose that produces the desired effects, and a dose that puts the user at risk. If you have a little too much GHB, the consequences can be fatal.
