Capote de verre et bracelets anti-GHB/Kétamine : les solutions contre la soumission chimique

Glass condoms and anti-GHB/ketamine wristbands: solutions against drug-facilitated sexual assault

Parties, festivals, and festive events should always be synonymous with pleasure and safety. Yet, drug-facilitated sexual assault —the administration of substances like GHB or ketamine without a victim's knowledge—is affecting a growing number of people in France. These colorless and odorless drugs can be discreetly slipped into a drink in seconds.

At AMA Prevention , we work every day to strengthen prevention against drug-facilitated sexual assault in party settings. Our solutions— Test Ton Verre® bracelets for detecting GHB/Ketamine andcustomizable glass condoms —offer concrete, accessible protection adapted to all contexts.

Chemical submission: understanding the risk to better protect yourself

The substances involved— GHB , ketamine , and sometimes certain benzodiazepines —can cause disinhibition, rapid sedation, memory lapses , and loss of control. They are often administered without the victim's knowledge at a party, concert, or festival. Hence the need for simple tools to check a drink and protect one's glass .

Our AMA Prevention solutions: taking concrete action against drug-facilitated sexual assault

To address this issue, AMA Prévention offers proven prevention measures already used by festivals, bars, associations and local authorities:

  • Test Ton Verre® bracelets detect GHB and ketamine : they change color in seconds upon contact with a beverage containing one of these substances. Simple, quick, and discreet.
  • Drug-proof glass covers : reusable and hygienic physical protection to prevent substances from entering the glass. Customizable (logo, color, packaging) for bars, festivals, and institutions.

Note: These devices are tools for preventing and verifying alcohol consumption . They do not replace biological testing or medical or legal intervention.

How can these devices be used effectively?

  1. Upon receiving your drink , immediately cover your glass with an AMA Prevention protective cover .
  2. If in doubt , place a few drops of your drink on the Test Ton Verre® anti-GHB/Ketamine bracelet and observe the result.
  3. Never leave your glass unattended and remain alert to unusual behavior around you.

A major public health issue

Cases of drug-facilitated sexual assault are recognized as a major public health and safety issue in nightlife settings. The phenomenon affects all generations, with young adults and students being particularly vulnerable. National analyses report an increase in reported cases since 2022 (ref. OFDT ).

Beyond individual behavior, the response must be collective : establishments, organizers, and institutions have a key role to play in making festive spaces safer. AMA Prévention collaborates with committed stakeholders, including the association M'Endors Pas , recognized for its work supporting victims and raising awareness.
