Do People Still Do "Ludes?"

No, they were banned by good ol' Ronnie Reagan.

Johnny Depp apparently did in 2015 according to Amber Heard.

I loved me a lude ! Lemon 714's were my faves. Many the night I popped a Disco Biscuit and danced for hours.

You got to know someone who knows someone who knows.

OP, I give them to all my dates

R3 can you describe them vs. something like coke or weed or MDMA?

I wish.

‘Ludes are in a special legal classification with only rohypnol (sp?) to keep them company. It seems rather over the top given how much people seem to have enjoyed them and how, with the exception of rapists, most every one hates the date rape drug.

We called them dolls, OP.

Dalmane (Flurazepam) is probably the closest one could get, in terms of the same "high', or low as Quaalude was a depressant.

It was Richard Carpenter's drug of choice.

I gave them to one of my girls before an MFM threesome back in 1983. The night did not go well for me.

They don't mix well with water

If you are a woman hanging out with Bill Cosby, maybe.

R13 Neither do you, m'dear!

R15 I've never seen YOU on the screen

It is intriguing that they’re a class of drug that’s seemingly vanished after being such a big deal for around 3 decades. I guess they’re hard to make, relatively speaking, and more importantly have been supplanted by other drugs.

It seems like benzos have some of the same disinhibiting properties as ludes, though ludes seem more sedating than benzos.

^less sedating than benzos

Xanny Bars took their place.

They are more like booze. Goodbye inhibitions and good judgment. They were fun though.
