Current warnings December 2014

Since the beginning of December, we have tested a number of substances of concern. A sample submitted as strychnine was categorised as being of particular health concern, as it also contained another strong neurotoxin in addition to strychnine - namely Brucin - was found. A warning also had to be issued about a substance found which, in addition to amphetamine, caffeine and an unknown substance, also contained the opioid Buprenorphine contained. We also tested a range of high-dose ecstasy tablets again this time.

Under the following link, all samples that have been collected from 01.12.2014 to date at checkit! analysed and classified as high-dose, unexpected or of particular health concern.
