Health dangers of the 'Chemsex' scene

Crystal Meth, GHB/GBL and Mephedrone form what some health workers call an "un-holy trinity" of drugs that together can heighten arousal and strip away inhibitions.

They have become increasingly popular on London's gay scene and the effects can see some users taking part in weekend-long sex parties, involving multiple partners.
