Drug Checking & Test Strip Distribution

Drug checking gives people critical information about what they’re taking—and helps organizers reduce risk across their events. When requested and where permitted, Harm Reduction Circle provides discreet, reagent-based drug checking paired with education on safer-use practices, limitations, and next steps.

Test Strips:

We distribute test strips for a range of emerging adulterants that frequently show up in nightlife and festival settings:

Fentanyl
Xylazine
Medetomidine
Nitazenes
Benzodiazepines

Reagent Test Kits:

For organizers who want to extend drug checking beyond test strips, we offer reagent test kits for on-site or take-home use. These kits allow attendees to screen substances for common adulterants, with education on their limitations and safer-use considerations. Providing these kits at your event builds trust and transparency, while reducing the chance of medical emergencies.

3-in-1 Drink Spike Test Kits:

Drink safety is a growing concern in nightlife. We provide discreet 3-in-1 drink spike test kits that detect GHB, ketamine, and benzodiazepines—three of the most common substances used in drug-facilitated sexual assault (DFSA). Making these kits available shows a strong commitment to consent culture and guest safety.

Guests receive clear instructions on how to use tools correctly and interpret results, with peers available to answer questions and provide harm reduction guidance.
