Overview
Known as Rohypnol or 'roofies,' this infamous drug has similar qualities to most other benzodiazepines; sedating with strong hypnotic effects. Despite being known as a 'date rape drug,' it has only been implicated in a small number of such crimes. The drug has risks of CNS depression that is increased in combination with other depressants. The drug may cause amnesia and lowered inhibitions in overdose.

EffectsPsychonautWikiEffectIndex
Cognitive
19Amnesia
Amnesia is a global impairment in the ability to acquire new memories regardless of sensory modality, and a loss of some memories, especially recent ones, from the period before amnesia began. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of GABAergic depressants, such as alcohol, benzodiazepines, GHB, and zolpidem.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Analysis suppression
Analysis suppression is a distinct decrease in a person's overall ability to process information and logically or creatively analyze concepts, ideas, and scenarios. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of antipsychotic compounds, and is associated with long term use of such drugs like quetiapine, haloperidol, and risperidone.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Anxiety
Anxiety is medically recognized as the experience of negative feelings of apprehension, worry, and general unease. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of hallucinogenic compounds, such as cannabinoids, psychedelics, dissociatives, and deliriants
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Anxiety suppression
Anxiety suppression (also known as anxiolysis or minimal sedation) is medically recognized as a partial to complete suppression of a person’s ability to feel anxiety, general unease, and negative feelings of both psychological and physiological tension. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of anxiolytic compounds which primarily include GABAergic depressants, such as benzodiazepines, alcohol, GHB, and gabapentinoids.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Cognitive euphoria
Cognitive euphoria (semantically the opposite of cognitive dysphoria) is medically recognized as a cognitive and emotional state in which a person experiences intense feelings of well-being, elation, happiness, excitement, and joy. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of opioids, entactogens, stimulants, and GABAergic depressants. However, it can also occur to a lesser extent under the influence of hallucinogenic compounds such as psychedelics, dissociatives, and cannabinoids.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Compulsive redosing
Compulsive redosing is the experience of a powerful and difficult to resist urge to continuously redose a psychoactive substance in an effort to increase or maintain the subjective effects which it induces. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of a wide variety of compounds, such as opioids, stimulants, GABAergics, and entactogens.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Confusion

It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of hallucinogenic compounds, such as psychedelics, dissociatives, synthetic cannabinoids, and deliriants.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Delusion
A delusion is a false idea or belief that is held with strong conviction and subjective certainty and is inconsistent with an individual’s educational, cultural and social background. Delusions are most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of hallucinogenic compounds, such as psychedelics, deliriants, and dissociatives.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Disinhibition
Disinhibition is medically recognized as an orientation towards immediate gratification, leading to impulsive behavior driven by current thoughts, feelings, and external stimuli, without regard for past learning or consideration of future consequences. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of GABAergic depressants, such as alcohol, benzodiazepines, phenibut, and GHB.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Dream potentiation
Dream potentiation is an effect that increases the subjective intensity, vividness, and frequency of sleeping dream states. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of oneirogenic compounds, a class of hallucinogen that is used to specifically potentiate dreams when taken before sleep.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Dream suppression
Dream suppression is a decrease in the vividness, intensity, frequency, and recollection of a person's dreams. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of cannabinoids and most types of antidepressants.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Emotion suppression
Emotion suppression (also known as flat affect, apathy, or emotional blunting) is medically recognized as a flattening or decrease in the intensity of one's current emotional state below normal levels. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of antipsychotic compounds, such as quetiapine, haloperidol, and risperidone.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Irritability
Irritability is medically recognized as the pervasive and sustained emotional state of being easily annoyed and provoked to anger. It is most commonly induced during the after effects of heavy dosages of stimulant compounds, such as cocaine, methamphetamine, and methylphenidate.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Language suppression
Language suppression is the decreased ability to use and understand speech. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of antipsychotic compounds, such as quetiapine, haloperidol, and risperidone.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Memory suppression
Memory suppression is an inhibition of a person's ability to maintain a functional short and long-term memory. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of hallucinogenic compounds, such as psychedelics, dissociatives, and deliriants.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Motivation suppression
Motivation suppression (also known as avolition or amotivation) is a decreased desire to initiate or persist in goal-directed behavior. It is most commonly induced under the influence of an acute dosage of an antipsychotic compound, such as quetiapine, haloperidol, and risperidone. However, it is worth noting that chronic treatment with any dose of antipsychotic medication does not cause this effect.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Sleepiness
Sleepiness (also known as drowsiness) is medically recognized as a state of near-sleep, or a strong desire for sleep without feeling a decrease in one's physical energy levels. This state is independent of a circadian rhythm; so, unlike sedation, this effect does not necessarily decrease physical energy levels but instead decreases wakefulness. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of a wide variety of compounds such as cannabinoids, GABAergic depressants, opioids, antipsychotics, some antihistamines, and certain psychedelics.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Thought deceleration
Thought deceleration is the process of thought being slowed down significantly in comparison to that of normal sobriety. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of depressant compounds, such as GABAergics, antipsychotics, and opioids.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Thought disorganization
Thought disorganization is a state in which one's ability to analyze and categorize conceptual information using a systematic and logical thought process is considerably decreased. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of hallucinogenic and depressant compounds, such as dissociatives, psychedelics, cannabinoids, and GABAergics.

2Physical euphoria
Physical euphoria can be described as feelings of pleasure and comfort within and across one's body. This euphoria typically feels somewhat comparable to the endorphin rushes felt during states of excitement or love, the coziness of a comfortable bed, and the rush of an orgasm. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of a wide variety of compounds, such as opioids, stimulants, psychedelics, and GABAergics.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Respiratory depression
Respiratory depression can be described as a reduced urge to breathe that can be fatal depending on its intensity. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of depressant compounds, particularly opioids, such as heroin and fentanyl, or GABAergics, such as alcohol and GHB. However, it is worth noting that otherwise safe dosages of these compounds can become fatal when combined with even small amounts of other classes of depressant.
