Drink- and drug-spiking has reached “epidemic” levels in the UK and is now so common it can happen to anyone, campaigners have told a new parliamentary inquiry into the problem.

The home affairs select committee was told that up to 15% of women and 7% of men have been spiked with alcohol or drugs.

Rohypnol remains within the system for up to 7 days after administration and is only detected through specific drug testing. It takes effect within 20-30 minutes of administration and lasts up to 8 hours. It acts as a sedative by inducing amnesia, relaxing the muscles, and slowing down psychomotor responses.
