Drug checking and harm reduction service at events and in the community in Aotearoa since 2015.

World's first legal drug checking operation, doing the thing legally since 2021 😊
Individually they don't cost much, but they really do add up, and we're falling short.

We know times are tight, and we hate to have to ask, but if you can spare anything, it would be an incredible help and mean so much.

❗We STRONGLY urge you to get your pills checked by FTIR at a proper clinic if you can get to one. You can find your nearest checking clinic on The Level website.

Stay safe out there, eh? The world's a better place with you in it ❤️

❗Nitazenes are opioids so will respond to naloxone in an OD situation, but benzodiazepines WON'T.

❗If you or someone you're tripsitting for starts showing signs of a depressant OD, call the ambulance immediately.

We're still waiting on confirmation about which nitazene it is, but either way this is not a combo that you want to deal with.

❗Mixing benzodiazepines and opioids like nitazenes greatly increases your risk of overdose.

✅ Sticking to 1 substance. Each substance has its own risks, and if you're adding new substances, you're adding their risks. This includes legal drugs like caffeine and alcohol.
✅ Getting your gear checked. Yes, we know we said that at the beginning but it's important enough to mention twice 😊

You can reduce your risks by

✅ Checking your gear. Presses can be used by different folk, so even if it's in our library it might not be the same batch. Better checked than wrecked 😘
✅ Starting low and going slow. Start with 1/4 and wait an hour to see what happens.

Be careful with these ones, eh? Big bois like these carry a higher risk of overamping. This feels like

🛑 Racing heartbeat
🛑 Shortness of breath
🛑 Chest pain
🛑 Overheating
🛑 Anxiety
🛑 Muscle spasms or tremors
🛑 Nausea/vomiting
🛑 Severe headache

If you feel any of these, head to the medics ASAP
