The physical effects of GHB can be broken down into 11 components all of which progressively intensify proportional to dosage. These are described below and generally include:

The physical effects of GHB can be broken down into 7 components all of which progressively intensify proportional to dosage. These are described below and generally include:

*'''[[Stimulation]]''' and '''[[Physical effects: Sedation|Sedation]]''' - At lower dosages GHB is physically stimulating, encouraging movement and wakefulness. At higher dosages however it becomes physically sedating, encouraging sleep and lethargy.

*'''[[Physical effects: Stimulation|Stimulation]]''' and '''[[Physical effects: Sedation|Sedation]]''' - At lower dosages GHB is physically stimulating, encouraging movement and wakefulness. At higher dosages however it becomes physically sedating, encouraging sleep and lethargy.
