Date rape drugs are substances added to a drink to render a victim unconcious or compliant and able to be easily raped or sexually assaulted, perhaps adding to the effect of an alcoholic drink, generally unknown to the person drinking it. The drug may also be used to allow a victim to be robbed.

In cases of sexual assault, the inability of the victim to say "no" means, under most legal systems, that the attack is legally considered as rape.

Commonly known date rape drugs are GHB and Flunitrazepam (Rohypnol).
