A drugs awareness charity has released details of several new ecstasy pills found in circulation at Parklife - and urged caution for any clubbers thinking of taking them. The Loop shared a graphic on Twitter showing pictures of eight pills and the amount of MDMA they contained.
Researchers found the tablets on the list contained an average of 170mg of MDMA - 1.5 times the average adult dose. Most potent were the 'fist emoji' pills, which contained more than double the standard amount.
The Loop, which is invited to festivals across the country to test drugs found on site in a bid to reduce harm, tweeted: "New pills in '22: Here is a selection of MDMA pills tested for the 1st time by The Loop @ParklifeFest, our 1st festival of the 2022 UK summer festival season. Average MDMA pill strength was ~170mg, ~1.5x an average adult dose. #JustSayKnow #TakeQuarterAndSipWater #GoSlowStayLow."
