Drug Purity Report #33/26

Welcome to “last week on drugs”, a PRO Test series dedicated to reporting on drug-market purity. This week: doppelgänger Ecstasy pills, pills containing more than one stimulant, and continued diversity among cathinone samples.

Caution: warnings are not limited to compounds mentioned in this post. All published laboratory results are warnings. No psychoactive substance is 100% safe.

Data fatigue is real, so here is the gist of what is worth knowing.


Red TikTok pill tested in Austria. Pills with the same appearance were found to contain either MDMA or caffeine.

Doppelgänger Ecstasy pills

Every pill should be treated as different. The latest red TikTok and blue Punisher pills found in Austria illustrate why: half of the tested samples contained MDMA, while the other half contained caffeine.

A weak effect from a caffeine pill may encourage someone to take more and overestimate their tolerance, increasing the possible risk of an accidental overdose if another pill contains MDMA.

Multi-stimulant pills

Pills containing both MDMA and caffeine were found in Austria, including another type of blue Punisher tablet.

MDMA with amphetamine was detected in a round orange pill in Innsbruck. In Slovenia, a Donkey Kong pill contained NEP mixed with an unknown compound, following recent detections in other countries across the region.

Cathinone diversity

As reported in previous weeks, 4-MMC is becoming increasingly rare while numerous substitutes remain in circulation.

Samples contained 3-CMC, 4-CMC, 2-MMC, 3-MMC, 4-BMC and NEP. Ethylpentedron was also detected this week.

Last Week at a Glance

• 217 samples from 6 countries — Austria, France, Germany, Slovenia, Spain and Switzerland — were included.
• 172 samples contained a quantified result, including 73 pills and 6 LSD samples.
• 89 samples contained more than one detected ingredient.
• Median LSD content was 172 µg, compared with 69 µg in the yearly reference period.

I recommend to check the app (I use the web version to avoid installing anything). It has a very helpful tool to help interpret TLC tests. You can upload a picture, mark the spot height and size of your known substance if any (e.g. caffeine), and spot height and size of the other tracks. It will let you know if the spot height and size fits with what you expect the other tracks to be, or not. And how much their height differs from what would be expected. It also tells you other likely candidates, if any. Highly recommended.

Do you have any information how samples enter testing?

What I mean is that if sample/pill/capsule effects are somehow suspicious, users probably tend to send it to such testing more likely and it will skew the results in favour of negatives.

@doubledog AFAIK they are crowdsourced from what the users of their test kits submit: DrugsPRO - Journaling & Drug Checking App

Welcome to the DMT-Nexus, and thank you so much for bringing this collaboration to our community.

Harm reduction, education, and open access to objective data have always been at the very core of what we do here. Reliable lab testing data like this is invaluable for keeping people safe and informed.

We are truly glad to have you hosting these weekly reports here and I encourage everyone to follow this thread closely, utilize the testing reagents and their amazing app, and remember: never take substance purity for granted!


Thank you DrugsPRO for your dedicated work in this space, and welcome aboard the DMT-Nexus!


Kind regards,

Drug Purity Report #34/26

In this week’s report on drug-market purity we are shining a spotlight on fake hash, extremely strong MDMA pills and further PMMA warnings.

Caution: warnings are not limited to substances mentioned in this post. All published laboratory results are warnings. No psychoactive substance is 100% safe.

Data fatigue is real, so here is the gist of what is worth knowing.



A sample sold as hash in Zurich contained two different synthetic cannabinoids: MDMB-4en-PINACA and ADB-4en-PINACA.

Fake hash with synthetic cannabinoids

A sample found in Zurich contained MDMB-4en-PINACA and ADB-4en-PINACA. With CBD readily available, the financial incentive to sell material containing synthetic cannabinoids instead of classic THC products can be considerable.

Extremely strong MDMA pills

Pills approaching 300 mg of MDMA were detected in Tarragona, Spain, and Basel, Switzerland. A grey Grim Reaper stamped “350mg” contained 283 mg MDMA, while an orange Master Roshi contained 260 mg.

Renewed PMMA warning

Although PMMA was not detected in the samples included in this particular week, further recent detections mean the warning remains important. PMMA has been found in multiple samples this year. It produces hardly any of the expected effects of MDMA while carrying many unwanted effects.

Last Week at a Glance

• 57 samples from 5 countries — Austria, France, Slovenia, Spain and Switzerland — were included.
• 48 samples contained a quantified result, including 10 pills and 3 LSD samples.
• 13 samples contained more than one detected ingredient.
• Median LSD content was 230 µg, compared with 70 µg in the yearly reference period.
