Ghb is 100 pecent illegal and even for an illegal drug its EXTREMLY hard to obtain.Unless u seek the prescribed legal version,i know u said u were not here in the U.S then honestly there are not many actualy no alternatives to it.
There are medications like gabatril or neurotion that MIGHT at first present a ghb feel,there otc stuff like picamilion or phenibut but again ghb still remains in a class of its own,unfortunatly.

I know... it was a shot in the dark- it's relatively easy to obtain in Vancouver (100% illegal as in the US)- if you know the right people. I miss it and thought some like minded expat might be around thinking the same thing.

Hey there, well according to wikipedia: (I had no idea what it was!)
"In Italy, under the trade name Alcover, GHB is used in the treatment of alcoholism (50 to 100 milligrams per kilogram per day, in 3 or more divided doses), both for acute alcohol withdrawal and medium to long term detoxification."
Which means that it is probably prescribed in Switerland, and if not, then a train ride into Milano would be possible to see a doc. Although whether they would be willing to prescibe it is a different story altogether.

It had two prescription forms prior to xyrem...Gamma-oh and Alcover,both unfrotunatly removed during the big anti-date rape era.
GOOGLE the term [xxx],alcover and you should get info on alcover,they speak how it was once avaialble but discontinued,and they too provide the products old insert.
right now the only prescription form of ghb is xyrem,otherwise named in other countrys.
the last popular legal name of an actual over the counter supplement was Renewtrient,also banned.

I know that was for info, but that site could also be used to import into the US prescription medication without a prescription. Sorry, but I'm going to block you from posting for 2 weeks again.
But please don't take this personally, this doesn't mean I don't like you or think you're a bad person.
