Programs that distribute test strips which can be used to detect the presence of fentanyl, xylazine, and many of their known analogs in a drug sample to reduce the number of opioid-related overdoses, severe injuries, fatalities, and other complications from contaminated drugs. Based on the results of the testing strips, people can choose to implement measures to reduce the risk of an overdose including using less of the substance, giving slow or test shots, not using alone, using with a naloxone rescue kit nearby or not using the substances at all. Other drugs in pill or powder form can also be tested (e.g., cocaine, MDMA, ketamine, and other illegally obtained prescription medications) but must be mixed with water prior to testing.
