Team Massachusetts
CONTACTS:
Team Massachusetts is
dedicated to furthering education about and research on GHB and its many
precursors/analogs, especially GBL and 1,4 butanediol. With the alarming
increase in the illegal use of these agents alone, and in combination with
many other drugs, both recreation and therapeutic, to produce chemical
submission, euphoriant effects and purported anabolic effects, the public
desperately needs to increase awareness of the dangers associated with these
highly addictive and extremely dangerous drugs. Additionally, clinicians
need to be alert in identifying suspected cases of abuse to better treat and
counsel their patients. Dr. Timothy J. Maher, who is the Sawyer Professor
Pharmaceutical Sciences and a Professor of Pharmacology in Boston heads the
“team” and is currently involved in the education of healthcare professional
regarding recreational and “club” drugs. He also continues to perform basic
research into the neurochemical, behavioral and toxicological aspects of
these agents with a goal of better understanding of their pharmacology, drug
interactions, abuse potential and potential antidotes. Please feel free to
contact Team Massachusetts if you have any questions. |
