Live Reports

UNC street drug data dashboards updated daily

Live Reports are like dashboards, but tailored to specific drugs or questions. This essay explains our approach. We do not identify program names in reports. If you're like to learn how to use our data, head to this page instead.

These reports are aggregated data. All stats and graphs on these apps are public and can be reused with attribution: "UNC Street Drug Analysis Lab at opioiddata.org"

📍
All samples are donated voluntarily. We get more more samples from certain states. Not all regions of a state will be covered. Most of our samples are post-consumption, and people may preferentially send us samples because they caused unusual reactions. There is no possible data source on street drugs that fully represents the entire drug supply.

American Drugs are Highly Regionalized
Of 90 substances detected by the UNC Street Drug Analysis Lab from January 2022 through April 2026, only 20 turn up everywhere at similar rates. The other 70 are regionally concentrated. There is no single American drug supply — there are at least four.
