Chemical submission consists on giving chemical substances to a person, without him/her consenting or being aware of it, and with a criminal purpose.

In the last decades, this phenomenon has significantly increased, becoming a considerable social concern.

Sexual assaults are the most frequent crimes, the victims are mainly women and the youngest are the most vulnerable ones.

For this reason, it is necessary to instruct young people in a clear and truthful way. They need to know what this phenomenon is, what substances can be involved, what the main symptoms are, how to avoid this situation and what to do in case of being a victim of this kind of crime or knowing someone who is.

Keywords : Informative guide; Woman; Chemical submission; Sexual assault.
