Drink Spike Test Kit, 2 Pack, Detects 3 Substances in Minutes, 99% Accurate, Safe & Easy to Use, 5 Minute Results, Drink Spiking Tool by Overdrive Defense (2 Pack), Bar Essential

With my daughter heading to college soon in the city, I really felt safer sending her out with these! There's two tests in the box, and unfortunately I have no way of testing if it actually works. However, I do feel safer knowing she has these just in case. They claim to detect the top three common ones, so it's already a win in my books. Better to be safe and sorry, definitely would recommend!!!

My main problem with this product is how cost prohibitive it is. Drink spiking is such a massive problem, and test like these can offer some level of peace of mind, but at nearly 15 dollars for a two pack very few people will be able to access them. It's also hard to imagine many people going through the process of testing their drinks in public, but it would be a huge step in helping curb drink spiking. In my case I plan to keep these on me to be able to check drinks after the fact. As someone who has had their drink spiked I would have loved to be able to get this kind of confirmation, and if I can give that to someone else (and help them get to a doctor for further help) it would be incredible. Solid product, but needs to be more accessible for more people.

The "Overdrive Defense Drink Spike Test Kit, Tests for GHB, Roofies (Rohypnol), and Ketamine, Instant Results, Safe & Easy to Use, 2 Pack" is an interesting product: it is a test kit intended to detect date-rape drugs that may have been introduced into beverages. According to the box, it does not matter whether the drinks are alcoholic or not, the test should work in either case. The box contains two test kits, which are reminiscent of COVID-19 tests. Each kit consists of a dropper, a vial ("water tube"), and a test card. To test a beverage, use the dropper to take a sample, put just 2 drops of the beverate into the vial, stir it, then pour 3 drops it onto an inlet on the test card. Within 5 minutes, the test card will change color if it detects the presence of the targeted drugs. On the test card, one viewport contains an area for the "control" detection. Just like COVID-19 tests, if this area does not work, the test is not valid. This test kit detects three types of drugs: Gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB), is a central nervous system depressant used as an intoxicant. Some effects it elicits are euphoria, disinhibition, enhanced libido and empathogenic states. Ketamine induces a state of dissociative anesthesia, a trance-like state providing pain relief, sedation, and amnesia. It is characterised by a sense of detachment from one's physical body and the external world that is known as depersonalization and derealization. Flunitrazepam (brand name Rohypnol), nicknamed "roofies" or "floonies": is widely known for its use as a date rape drug. It is known to induce anterograde amnesia in sufficient doses; individuals are unable to remember certain events that they experienced while under the influence of the drug, which complicates investigations. All the above are well-documented as date-rape drugs. Though I have no knowledge of the frequency/prevalence of their use, this test kit appears to be on target for its intended use. Putting aside chemistry, a user has to consider the social aspects of this product: if faced with a situation requiring its use, can a person put the kit to use? I think it is mainly useful in settings where a person, who suspects of being targeted, can recuse him/herself. If you are at a bar or public venue with people around, you can momentarily slip away to a bathroom with your drink, and take 5 mintues to test a sample. If however you are alone with another person with suspicious intentions, this test kit might not be useful. I do with the vials were a little wider. so that if in a hurry, a stressed person could use a straw instead of the dropper to collect and deposit samples. Four stars.

This isn't the most subtle thing in the world, but it's better to have something if you suspect any foul play at all than not be able to keep yourself safe. I would really recommend having these on hand at a party or behind a bar just to help people feel more secure. They test for a pretty nice range of dangerous substances, too, which is nice.

Having the availability of products like this help keep people safe. The packets are small enough to keep in your wallet and have handy when questions arise about whether someone might have ill intent as you drink. I cannot attest to their accuracy, though.

I was happy to have these.I didnt have a drugged drink but glad I could check it. The strip is easy to read and simple to use. Great for anyone going out and concerned about mixed drinks

This is a great concept for your safety when you are out "celebrating" especially around people you don't know and trust. Though I must say that the practicality of this product has some caveats that one must consider. First and foremost this only comes with 2 tests, which detects 3 common drugs that are used to target the unsuspecting victim. The practicality lies in the adminstering of this test. There are some scenarios you don't want to test this in a setting that might look akward, though your safety is first, it will make you look akward. Testing one drink could be good, and in the event something does happen, you will need to test the other drink. For your safety, you want to test ALL your drinks that are "served" to you by the buyer. That being said, this is more of an "after the fact" drink tester for when the worst happens, you might be able to test the remainder of the drink at hand after effects took over. The concept does mean well, though I cannot vouch for the effectiveness of this product as I don't possess any of these substances that it tests for. I find it safer to be occupied by someone who is a friend and family member that will be sober or aware of their surroundings and interactions. Best thing for someone to do is practice the practical safety habits in such scenarios, and don't trust anyone who you don't know to serve you drinks. It happens too often, though I imagine this test kit could be utilized to test discretely in the scenario when someone is really being suspicious. The kit contains the test platter and a dropper that you drop the drink/mix onto and will provide results much like a covid-19 test. Unfortunatly this only comes with 2 tests per package.

I think having this on hand for women, and men, is a very smart idea in today's world. Unfortunately, there are plenty of people willing to take advantage by using powerful substances that could render one unable to make conscience decisions for themselves. Trust your gut and if you have any question or doubt at all. Discreetly run a test and have the confidence to have a great time safely. This is a fantastic product. Stock up and give them to anyone you love and care about. There's no shame in being cautious.
