Caffeine sold as mescaline
Risk assessment
Caffeine was detected in this sample (pill form, star-shaped) declared as mescaline. If consumed unknowingly, there is no psychedelic effect, as expected from mescaline. However, there is a risk of caffeine overdose, especially if consumers take additional amounts to compensate for the lack of effect. High doses of caffeine can lead to heart palpitations, restlessness, nausea, and other health problems.
In 2024, an identical star-shaped pill containing a very high dose of LSD was tested at the drug checking facility in Bern. This shows that false declarations are a recurring problem with pills – so it is essential to have them tested before consumption!

Analysis
Have your substances tested in a drug check.
Testing
If you do not have the possibility to have substances analyzed, first test a maximum of one third of the pill, since very many high-dose pills are in circulation.
Wait and see
Wait 2 hours after taking the medication, as there are always pills with unexpected active ingredients in circulation, which can have a later onset of action.
Drinking
Remember: drink non-alcoholic and isotonic drinks (3 dl / hour) and take breaks in the fresh air from time to time to prevent overheating / dehydration.
