Answer 1

The correct answer is: Rohypnol is often mixed with alcohol.

Rohypnol, also known as the "date drug," is often mixed with alcohol in club settings. This is an example of drug synergy because combining the sedative effects of rohypnol with the depressant effects of alcohol can intensify the overall sedation and impairment on the individual. This combination can lead to an increased risk of sexual assault and other dangerous situations.
