Dr. Sanjay Adhia’s Article: Date Rape Drugs – Psychiatry, Pharmacology and Law Weaponized Chemistry, a Medicine Cabinet of Assault

In his article: Date Rape Drugs: Psychiatry, Pharmacology and Law – Weaponized Chemistry, a Medicine Cabinet of Assault, Forensic Psychiatrist Sanjay Adhia, M.D. examines the use of drugs and/or alcohol by sexual predators to render a victim incapacitated.

Dr. Adhia points out that drug-facilitated sexual assault (DFSA) is more easily reported while the drug is still in the victim’s system, and thus more easily testable.    The article examines the effects of  alcohol consumption and “date-rape” drugs on a person, and how one can proactively defend against such assaults.
