Why is the date rape drug "rohypnol" produced?

Rohypnol: Is an intermediate-acting benzodiazepine with general properties similar to those of valium (diazepam). It is used in the short-term treatment of insomnia, as a pre-medication in surgical procedures and for inducing anaesthesia. It's not available in the United States.

Non- USA use.: It is produced so that it can be sold. Flunitrazepam or Rohypnol is prescribed and sold in asia, mexico, south america & europe for the treatment of insomnia. It can't be legally used in the us.
