Look up what you took. See what it did to other people.

Products sold at gas stations and smoke shops under names like Za Za and Galaxy Gas. Real reactions, reported by the people who had them.

Tap what you took

Names as they appear on the package. Each one opens every report filed about it.

Names overlap on purpose. 7-OH tablets and shots are sold as “kratom” but are a concentrated extract many times stronger than kratom leaf — reports about them are filed here, not under kratom tea.

[01] Most-reported products

What is sending people to the ER right now

Products ranked by reports filed in the last 90 days. Tap any row to read them. This counts harm — it is not a popularity list.

Reports per month

Volume tracks awareness as much as harm. Spikes usually follow a product hitting shelves in a region.

[03] Alerts

Get told when reports spike near you.

One email when a substance sees an unusual jump in reports, or when your state restricts or recalls a product. Nothing else — no newsletter, no fundraising.

You're on the list. We'll only write when something changes in {{ alertState }}. Unsubscribe is in every email.

An empty result is information too — it may mean nobody has reported this combination, not that it is safe.

Your report is in the registry.

It will appear in the feed within a few minutes. We kept no email, no IP address, and no account — which also means we can't retrieve or edit it later. Write down the ID if you want to reference it.

Held for safety review

We're holding this one for a person to read.

Your report contains language our screen flags for risk of harm. It isn't published yet and it hasn't been deleted — a reviewer looks at held reports every day.

If you're thinking about hurting yourself, please talk to someone now.

Report a reaction

Tell us what happened to you.

Anonymous. No account, no email required. Skip anything you don't know — a partial report still counts. If you are in danger right now, get help first.

01 · Who is reporting

Still anonymous either way — this only tells us how to read the account.

02 · The product

Pick the name on the package. Each one is listed with the substance it contains — that pairing is what we group reports by.

Filed under {{ form.substance }} · {{ brandReportCount }} reports already on file

Plain words are fine. We never publish this as guidance.
03 · What happened *

Select every symptom there was. Pick at least one.

04 · What happened next
Please leave out names, addresses, and anything that identifies you or someone else.

Product guide

Every product we track, by the name on the package.

Every guide follows the same template: what it is, what it actually does, the real risks, interaction warnings, danger signs, dependence and withdrawal, legal status, and the reports filed about it. No doses, ever.

If you feel off

Start here. It takes ten seconds.

You will not get in trouble for calling. Poison Control is not law enforcement, and most states have laws protecting people who call for help during an overdose.

Life-threatening — call now 911 Can't wake them · slow, stopped or gasping breathing · blue or gray lips · seizure · chest pain Not life-threatening — free, 24/7 1-800-222-1222 Poison Control. Nurses and pharmacists who deal with this daily. Confidential, no name required.

Danger signs

Any one of these is a reason to call 911, whatever was taken.

  • {{ d }}

What to tell responders

  1. The exact product name on the package — read it off the label.
  2. How much, and when. A rough answer is fine.
  3. Everything else taken today, including alcohol and prescriptions.
  4. Any conditions or medicines you take regularly.
  5. Bring the package or bottle — it tells them more than a name can.

While you wait

  • Stay with the person. Don't leave them to sleep it off alone.
  • If they're unresponsive but breathing, turn them on their side.
  • If an opioid or tianeptine may be involved and you have naloxone, use it — then still call 911.
  • Don't induce vomiting unless Poison Control tells you to.

Withdrawal can be the dangerous part

Stopping phenibut or other GABA-B drugs abruptly after regular use can cause seizures, hallucinations and delirium — this is a medical emergency, like alcohol or benzodiazepine withdrawal. Tianeptine withdrawal is opioid-like and, while less immediately life-threatening, is severe enough that people relapse to escape it.

Do not white-knuckle it alone. Tell a clinician exactly what you've been taking and how much — there are protocols for both.

About

Who runs this, and why you can check our work.

StreetMedWatch is a small independent project run by harm-reduction workers, a nurse, and two people who build software. We started it after watching friends and family get hurt by products bought legally, at a counter, with no way to find out what had happened to anyone else.

How we verify

  1. {{ v.n }} {{ v.title }} {{ v.body }}

What we don't do

  • We don't publish doses, sourcing, or anything that reads as instructions.
  • We don't rank substances by "what's trending" — only by reported harm.
  • We don't sell, share, or monetize report data, and we don't run ads.
  • We don't claim a report proves a product caused a reaction. Reports are accounts, not evidence.

Privacy, plainly

Reports are anonymous by design. We do not require an account, we do not store IP addresses with reports, and we strip identifying details before publication. That's also the trade-off: once a report is submitted, we have no way to tie it back to you, which means we can't retrieve or delete it on request.

Alert sign-ups store one email and one state, used only for alerts. Analytics are aggregate and cookie-free.

Funding

Two small public-health grants and individual donations. No industry money — not from supplement makers, smoke-shop distributors, treatment centers, or anyone selling a product mentioned on this site. Annual finances are published in full.
