Gamma-hydroxybutyrate / GHB / G

Get your dose right

• There is no such thing as a ‘standard’ dose of G.

• Every batch, every person, every day is different.

• Go slow – split your dose. Have a little bit first, then top up.

G doesn’t mix well with other drugs

• Drinking alcohol on G increases the risk of overdose.

• Combining ice with G does not reduce the risk of overdose.

• Always swallow G — it’s an acid and will burn your veins if injected.

• Booty bumping may also produce scarring. If you must, dilute with water by at least 1:1.

Guard yourself against overdose

• Make sure you’re with a friend and that they know what you’ve taken.

• Don’t let your friends to ‘sleep it off’ – try to wake them.

• Ring 000 quickly if you suspect overdose
