Withdrawal delirium with dance drug ‘liquid ecstasy’ (GHB)
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 June 2014
Abstract
We wish to describe a case of gamma hydroxyl butyrate (GHB) withdrawal, including seizure activity in a 34 year old male, who had been taking the substance over a two year period. The syndrome has many aspects in common with alcohol withdrawal (delirium tremens) and benzodiazepine withdrawal (long duration of symptoms), however detoxification presents many challenges for clinicians.
