And in 2012, a study by doctors at Wrexham Maelor Hospital in Wales, found that rather than date rape drugs being the problem, women were, in fact, being rendered helpless by binge drinking. The medics found no evidence any women seeking help from emergency doctors because their drinks had allegedly been spiked had been given these drugs and that around one in five tested positive for recreational drugs while two-thirds had been drinking heavily.
Researcher Dr Hywel Hughes, an associate specialist in A&E, said “no ketamine, GHB or Rohypnol was found in the samples which suggest they are not commonly used to spike drinks,” adding, “claiming their drink has been spiked may be used as an excuse by patients who have become incapacitated after the voluntary consumption of excess alcohol."
