I think you're right. I've always wondered why they don't water down GHB to be the equivalent of a low ABV drink. The only scary thing about GHB is its relative potency to volume. It's honestly a wonderful drug.
It is a pretty nice alternative to alcohol, and since their name is GABA Labs, and GHB can be synthesized from GABA, I assume they will be selling some analog or even rebranding and packaging GHB properly for consumption.
Didn't David Nutt suggest this several years back? I seem to recall hearing he was really trying to make a go of it too.
Yes, but I think the rebranding of GHB as "the date rape drug" did not help promoting it.
I tried it once but didn't feel anything -- it would be nice to give it another go.
I presume it's down to the "therapeutic index" (how close a fun dose is to a dangerous dose) (although alcohol is much the same).
I agree it is a nice drug but one friend of mine did have his family stage an intervention because of his abuse of it.
It's very addictive and can cause a strong dependence/withdrawal, thats why it's rarely used
