		Recreational drug use is the use of psychoactive drugs for recreational rather than medical or spiritual purposes, although the distinction is not always clear.
		This attitude is least prevalent in western Europe—see Drug policy of the Netherlands—and more recently in Canada, where enforcement of extant legal penalties for possession of small amounts of marijuana and other so-called "soft drugs" such as hallucinogenic mushrooms is increasingly ignored or given a low priority by law enforcement officials.
		All of the currently legal recreational drugs (alcohol, tobacco, caffeine, tea, coffee and even chocolate) have been subject to prohibition throughout history, and likewise all of the currently illegal recreational drugs have been legal as recently as the early twentieth century.

		In recent years, certain drugs have emerged and become popular among teens and young adults at dance clubs and "raves." These drugs, collectively termed "club drugs," include MDMA/Ecstasy (methylenedioxymethamphetamine), Rohypnol (flunitrazepam), GHB (gamma hydroxybutyrate), and ketamine (ketamine hydrochloride).
		Producing both stimulant and psychedelic effects, MDMA is often used at parties because it enables party-goers to dance and remain active for long periods of time.
		The effects typically last from 4–6 hours after administration of the drug, but some cases have been reported in which the effects were experienced 12 or more hours after administration.

	Club Drugs
		Although users may think these substances are harmless, research has shown that club drugs can produce a range of unwanted effects, including hallucinations, paranoia, amnesia, and, in some cases, death.
		Some club drugs work on the same brain mechanisms as alcohol and, therefore, can dangerously boost the effects of both substances.
		And studies suggest club drugs found in party settings are often adulterated or impure and thus even more dangerous.

	The club drug GHB (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Taken in small doses, GHB produces a relaxed and euphoric state similar in some respects to alcohol and in some respects to E. The comparisons to Ecstasy are ironic, however, as the two are on opposite ends of the pharmacological spectrum: E is classed as an amphetamine, while GHB is a hypnotic/sedative.
		Although it is not the date rape drug, there have been cases where that has happened, because the GHB was slipped into a soda or water at a club (www.student.com/article/ghb).
		Conspiracy theorists claim that US FDA had demonized the drug because it is so much more effective (and cheaper) then the mainstream sedatives flogged by the pharmaceutical giants and thus posses a threat to their profit margins.

		Legislation to crack down on club drug use is wrapped into the Amber Alert package, and critics worry that businesses whose customers use drugs without the proprietors' knowledge could face prosecution under the law.
		An earlier version of the legislation aimed at club drugs such as ecstasy failed to pass Congress last year, following complaints that the bill unfairly painted all raves and similar events as havens for illegal drug use.
		The legislation, called the Illicit Drug Anti-Proliferation Act, is based on the federal crack-house statute, which allows prosecution of people who knowingly allow their private residences or businesses to be used for the buying and selling of drugs.

		Although drug experts regard Ecstasy as harmful itself, health and law enforcement officials warn that the use of research chemicals is particularly hazardous because scientists have not studied their effects.
