Get Your Drugs Tested is the world’s largest repository of drug analysis results. We are a community service entirely funded and operated by the Medicinal Cannabis Dispensary.
We are certified by Vancouver Coastal Health as an Overdose Prevention Site but we receive no government funding and are independently run.
HOW THE TESTING WORKS
We have a special machine called an “FTIR Spectrometer” which can help identify your sample and tell us what it is comprised of.
The test takes 10-15 minutes on average and does not destroy the sample. The machine shines an infrared laser onto the substance. The software produces a spectrum that we can analyze to identify the substances in your sample.
We also have test strips available, these are more sensitive and can test for even trace amounts of fentanyl, benzodiazepines or lysergamides.
We are currently offering drug testing nationwide through the mail, and in Vancouver. You can email us for mailing information or samples can be dropped off for testing at 880 East Hastings from 12 – 8pm daily.
We do not charge a fee or require a donation for drug analysis.
The kinds of drugs we can test:
* Psychedelics like LSD, MDMA, MDA
* Stimulants like meth, cocaine, cathinones
* Opioids like heroin and fentanyl
* Others like ketamine, PCP, steroids
* Pharmaceuticals like Viagra, Xanax and Oxycodone (we must crush your pill to test it)
The kinds of drugs we cannot test:
* Organic samples like cannabis, mushrooms, kratom, peyote or salvia
* Drugs in foods like candies or brownies
* Drugs that are at levels below 5% of the sample (we use test strips as listed above to detect substances below this threshold)
* Most liquid samples (we can test GHB)
What the FTIR test does:
This test detects what substances are in the sample. For example, if you bring in a capsule which you believe is MDMA, we can confirm if it is only MDMA or contains other drugs or substances.
We can also identify filler substances. As the machine can’t detect below 5%, there may be any combination of substances below that threshold (ie. solvents, precursors, reactionary byproducts, etc).
This test can also show the levels of a substance within the material. For example: this test can tell you if your capsule is 30% MDMA and 70% filler or 80% MDMA and 20% filler. The results are approximate.
What the FTIR test cannot do:
* This test cannot always determine purity of your sample.
* This test cannot identify LSD on blotter paper (we use a lysergamide test strip for this).
* This test cannot always reliably detect substances at very low levels in the sample. The threshold is around 5% (We do have fentanyl test strips which can detect even trace amounts of fentanyl).
* This test cannot identify a material not in our library. For example: this test cannot identify a very newly created chemical, but it can identify anything from our library of thousands of drugs and substances.
* This test cannot guarantee that other parts of the material are identical. For example, if we test one pill from a batch, that doesn’t mean other pills from the same batch are guaranteed to be the same. Even testing a portion of one pill does not guarantee that the rest of the pill is exactly the same. However, we will do our best to thoroughly mix each sample we receive.
* This test cannot identify a drug if it is in a food or candy. These are mixtures of many things and dilutions into sugar or food make it very hard to determine specific drugs.
* This test does not work on organic products like cannabis or other plant materials.
* This test can detect the presence of fentanyl, but not below 5%. Since fentanyl is so potent, it is still very effective even at low levels. We use a fentanyl test strip on all samples. Click here for more information.
