Rohypnol tablets are white, scored on one side, with the word "ROCHE" and an encircled one or two (depending on the dosage) on the other. They are sold in pre-sealed bubble packs of one or two mg doses. Rohypnol can often be dissolved in a drink, and undetectable.
Rohypnol is an odorless, colorless, tasteless drug. If you or someone you trust did not open the container, do not eat or drink its contents. If you experience any of the symptoms associated with Rohypnol, have someone take you to the infirmary or hospital immediately.

Rohypnol and other similar drugs are prescribed as sleeping pills, but when in the hands of a sex abuser, can put both women and men in extreme danger. Fifteen minutes after being slipped into a drink, the drug renders the victim helpless. Temporarily paralyzed and unable to fight back or cry out, the victim is easily manhandled out of a club or bar looking like just another person who has had one too many. On waking, the victims don't know where they were, who they were with, or what they did. They are left only with the physical impact of their ordeal and terrifying moments of lucidity which can haunt them for the rest of their lives.
Along with these, the tendency of Rohypnol becoming a stepping stone to harder drugs may take place. Rohypnol, nowadays, is ... used as instrument to commit crimes such as rape. Rohypnol was known to be used prior to committing sexual assault, by slipping Rohypnol unnoticeably into the drinks of the victim. Once the effect of the medicine has taken place, the rapists can freely drag their victims to any place they wanted. Victims of this so called "date-rape," find themselves helpless, because of the effect of the Rohypnol on the nervous system.
Rohypnol is manufactured in pill form. The licit market for the drug is currently supplied with a 1-milligram dose in an olive green, oblong tablet, imprinted with the number 542. The new tablet includes a dye that, according to Hoffman-La Roche (the makers of Rohypnol) will be visible if it is slipped into a drink.
