GBH Tablets: Risks, Effects, and Legal Status

GBH (gamma-butyrolactone) tablets are a type of psychoactive drug that produce effects that are similar to alcohol and sedatives. Its uses include date rape and body building for its alleged ability to stimulate the secretion of growth hormones.

While once available as a dietary supplement, GBH is now classified as a Schedule III drug in the United States, meaning it is illegal to manufacture, distribute, or use without a prescription. Because of its high potential for abuse and dangerous side effects, including overdose and death, GBH is used rarely in medical settings.
