Introducing HarmGuard FX™

Detailed Insights into Safeguarding Lives with HarmGuard FX™

Let's delve deeper into what makes HarmGuard FX™ such a game-changer in addressing the severe issues associated with substance adulteration:

Fentanyl & Xylazine: A Potent Threat

​

Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid up to 100 times more potent than heroin typically found in recreational drugs like heroin and counterfeit prescription pills. The presence of fentanyl drastically increases risks of overdose, but its effects can be reversed by naloxone (Narcan).
 

In stark contrast stands xylazine - primarily used as an animal sedative – it has emerged as an adulterant due to its potent impact on the central nervous system; however, unlike fentanyl, its effects cannot be reversed with naloxone (Narcan). A combination or singular usage of these substances can lead to severe respiratory depression resulting in oxygen deprivation and brain damage or even death.

Revolutionary Solution: Detecting Danger Before It Strikes

HarmGuard FX™ is an unprecedented rapid test capable of detecting both fentanyl and xylazine using one cost-effective strip - validated by an FDA-registered testing lab based in the US. Its easy-to-use design involves three straightforward steps:

​

  1. Mix a small sample of recreational drug powder with water.

  2. Dip the test strip into the solution for 15 seconds.

  3. Allow 5 minutes for results to appear

 

These results will display lines indicating whether lethal additives like fentanyl or xylazine are present or
absent in your substances.
