KnowDrugs Drug Checking
DRUG INFORMATION & EDUCATION
Check the profiles of more than 200 drugs for educational purposes: Stimulants like MDMA and Amphetamine, depressants such as Alcohol and Benzodiazepines or psychedelics like 2C-B, LSD and DMT.
KnowDrugs provides you with drug education harm reduction advice, focusing on MDMA / Molly / Ecstasy and other psychoactive substances. Knowing about the wanted and unwanted effects of drugs, their duration, interactions and risks helps you to make more informed decisions, reduce risks and reflect upon your drug habits and consumption behaviour.
DRUG CHECKING, PILL WARNINGS & DRUG ALERTS
Search for drug name, substance or location, to find drug alerts from nearby and learn about their ingredients and dosage strength to avoid overdose and particularly dangerous cuts (e.g. PMA).
Drug checking or pill testing is a way to reduce the harm from drug consumption by allowing users to find out the content and purity of substances that they intend to consume. This empowers users to make safer choices: to avoid more dangerous substances and combination and to use smaller quantities.
If you don't have access to professional drug testing services, looking up recent drug testing results can still help you make a more informed decision about your consumption.
HARM REDUCTION & RESPONSIBLE DRUG USE
Harm reduction aims to minimize the harms associated with recreational substance use. The harm reduction approach follows from the idea that substance use is a high-risk activity that innately entails the possibility of injury, addiction, and death. Therefore, the best strategy one can employ (outside of avoiding use entirely) is to take appropriate measures to mitigate its potential harms.
KnowDrugs highlights the harm-potential of more than 200 substances and demonstrates strategies on how to reduce the harms associated with the consumption of drugs.
KNOWDRUGS CAN ALSO HELP YOU TO:
- learn how to spot and react in case of an emergency, take care of someone experiencing a bad trip at a party or festival
- find a free and confidential counselling service which accepts you and your personal choices, and helps you develop the right strategies and competencies if you want to change something about your consumption behaviour.

I honestly think this is a great app. I have no use for it myself atm. But life is life and people will be people. This info is often hard to scrap together. Can't vouch for accuracy bc it's too far away but if credible it could be a great resource for many many people and could help lessen stigmas by even existing. I am no advocate for or against the subject of this app. But it has the potential to save many many lives. Just hope that aspect was part of the motivation for creating this. Props.
keeping up a good job. though shouldn't removed the long high bars for the categories, imo, quite handy if they worked. make the whole area active. Tripping people don't like two things: - scroll phone text for long - tap into huge buttons that don't work. rid of these two things and the crown is your, m8
Somewhat useful but very limited information is contained in this app, and it is apparently intended for a European audience.
I've explained the multitude of issues that I've come into contact with when using this app so hopefully they'll take my advice. IMO a total makeover is needed for this to become a positive and useful service in the future. It's just begun however so I'll add an extra star for that, plus I'm hoping to help them with the information put out and essentially give them the info that is needed while they program it because this app is /really/ needed in this day and age. Also no link to WEDINOS?! Wut
good purpose, good execution, nice looking GUI - i love it!
I like it a lot, it contains many substances, but some fairly common substances are still missing, like 4-CEC, ADB-FUBINACA and salvinorin A. Other than that, besides some small grammar mistakes here & there it's a very good app. 5/5 do recommend!
Very informative app - my go to whenever I'm unsure and its very reliable and accurate. Easy to use and I recommend everyone considers reading up before anything.
This app is AWESOME but something I would like is to explain the difference between ways of consuming, I know there is the graph but I think that difference could be more explained and that'd be cool and really useful
Honestly i think this is one of the most useful and informative applications. (Of course it depends on the person, but for me it is) much love from Serbia ❤️
True and honest information. This is honestly one of the best things to happen ever in a app. To the person who made this. YOURE SAVING LIVES. Having non bias true honest info readily available is truly just a amazing thing.
Information is very inaccurate. Filters don't work at all. Dosage is inaccurate. This app could kill someone.
Absolute 10 out of 10. Amazing app i can always find what i am looking for You dont have to pay for anything completely free great info. You can always find the source for information.😁😌
Love it. Usefull and helpfull <3 Try adding more images and more countries in counselling category. Greetings from Olsztyn/Allenstein - Poland :)
Awesome app, it's really good to be able to easily Check what your putting in your body, now there is no excuse
Great app with lots of useful information. Two notes though, it would be great if the send feedback button worked. Also, a nice feedback is, how cool would it be to be able to compare two/three substances in a table format? Type, duration, common interactions, etc.
