Several cocaine samples with a high percentage of extenders
Risk assessment
Since the beginning of December 2022, increased numbers of cocaine samples containing an above-average proportion of pharmacologically active extenders have again been tested at the DIZ. One sample contained almost 30% levamisole, in a second sample almost 30% caffeine was analyzed. A third sample contained cocaine and three extenders. The samples were purchased either privately or via online channels (Telegram). It is also advisable to have substances tested if they are purchased from friends, acquaintances or online stores. Further information on cocaine and its extenders can be found here.

Analysis
Have your substances tested in a Drug Checking
Testing
If you do not have the possibility to have substances analysed, always test a small amount to avoid overdoses.
Wait and see
Wait 2 hours after oral intake, as there are always powders / crystals in circulation with unexpected active ingredients, which can have a later onset of action.
Utensils
Always use your own sniffing utensils when applying powders nasally (sniffing) to avoid infecting yourself or others with diseases.
