We've found a new synthetic cannabinoid being sold as MDMA 🙄
It's the first time MDMB-5Br-INACA 's been seen in Aotearoa.

Heads up friends, we have a new addition to our Pill Library. This one's made it into our hall of shame for having more than one dose of MDMA in it.
If you see it on your adventures, remember to start low and go slow. Keep an eye on how you're feeling.

We've done a bit of digging about the new synthetic opioid in Aotearoa that's being mis-sold as oxycodone.
So far what we've found all looks pretty awful, so we recommend hanging on to your oxys until you can get them checked properly.
