The effects of GHB can vary, and a person may not immediately recognize that her judgment, coordination, or memory is changing.
Nausea can occur, while more severe effects may include vomiting, unconsciousness, seizures, slowed breathing or heart rate, lower body temperature, coma, or death. These possibilities make changes in alertness or breathing a safety concern rather than something to wait out alone. Timely medical attention can protect you when the effects are severe or uncertain.
