Flunitrazepam, or Rohypnol, is a 1,4-benzodiazepine [[drug]] that has been used criminally in recent years as a "date-rape drug," though it is more commonly used as a recreational drug in the United States.  It is a [[central nervous system]] [[depressant]] similar to [[Valium]] and Librium that acts both as a [[sedative]] and a [[hypnotic]].  It is [[smuggle]]d into the [[United States]] (where it is illegal) from [[Mexico]] and [[South America]] (where it is legal).  Like Valium, it causes temporary [[amnesia]] which can be useful for a medical operation, but also criminals have used it to take advantage of victims of a violent crime.  Its effects are particularly rapid with [[alcohol]] consumption.  In high doses, it can be fatal.
