In some cases, "[[date rape drug]]s" such as [[ketamine]], [[Gamma-Hydroxybutyric acid]] (GHB) and benzodiazepines, such as [[flunitrazepam]] (Rohypnol, or "roofies"), may be used to neutralize resistance or even render the victim unconscious. Such drugs will usually also affect memory of the event, by causing different degrees of [[anterograde amnesia]]. These drugs, when combined with alcohol, take effect quickly and more potently, often before a potential victim is aware of the drug's progress. [[Alcohol]] on its own is, by far, the most widely used drug in rapes and it may also cause amnesia.<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6152646.stm news.bbc.co.uk] – Date-rape drugs 'not widespread'</ref>
