When I was young and stupid I took rohypnol recreationally. I THOUGHT I was asleep... but according to my boyfriend I was not... I was up wandering around and doing things that I just COULDNT REMEMBER...

I would not recommend rohypnol for ANYTHING.. think of what would happen if you decided to get up and go for a drive.??

I have never heard of prescription rohypnol for outpatient. Is this common?

on the website:
http://www.usdoj.gov/dea/pubs/rohypnol/rohypnol.htm


"Flunitrazepam—marketed under the trade name Rohypnol—is manufactured worldwide, particularly in Europe and Latin America, in 1- and 2-milligram tablets by Hoffman-La Roche, Inc., a large pharmaceutical manufacturer. However, the drug neither is manufactured nor approved for medical use in the United States.

DEA currently is reviewing the possibility of placing flunitrazepam into Schedule I of the CSA.

A Schedule I drug is considered to have a high potential for abuse, to have no currently accepted medical use in treatment, and to lack accepted levels of safety for use under medical supervision."
