It's that time of year again! Heading to a party or club this Halloween? Get clued up with some harm reduction advice. 🎃

👉 If you're planning on taking drugs, start with a small amount and wait at least an hour before taking more.

👉 If you're planning on mixing, read up on how drugs might interact with one another, including alcohol and prescription medication, head to: drugsand.me/tools/interactions

👉 Look after your mates; alcohol and other drugs can make you more vulnerable to the behaviour of others so keep an eye on your friends and use around people you trust.

👉 Costumes do not equal consent; don't be a d*ck, give people space, if you see dodgy behaviour, call it out.

⚠️📢 Drug checking services in Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain and Switzerland have found PMMA in pills sold as M**A.

👉 PMMA is an amphetamine that is chemically related to M**A.

💊 Unlike M**A which has an onset time of 30-60mins, PMMA takes between 1-2.5 hours, which can lead people to re-dose, increasing the risk of overdose.

👀 So far, 7 pill presses have been identified as containing PMMA, but this doesn’t mean other presses are unaffected.

For more information about PMMA and signs of poisoning, head to:
