A kids toy containing a pharmaceutically active sedative prodrug

A toy, called bindeez allows you to use water in order to stick together tiny coloured beads into various multidimensional designs.
The Chinese manufacturer appears to have substituted the non-toxic chemical 1,5-pentanediol (a viscous oily liquid used as plasticiser) with 1,4-butandiol which metabolizes into gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB). The toy was promptly recalled because children were hospitalized after playing and probably swallowing the beads.
I wonder if any adults ever took advantage of that dangerous chemical substitution.

IIRC, this happened quite some time ago. I'm sure adults were buying the hell out of before it was banned.

yea this is quite very old news
If I remember correctly the toys were recalled after a child got into a life threatening situation or something along these lines
and ghb is similar, but very different from aclohol at the same time, it may share some similar dis-inhibiting characteristics, but there is so much on top of it.. euphoria, increased pleasure from tactile sensations and so on.. it's nickname liquid X is well justified IMO
