SENTRY |
|
 SENTRY
is an Internet-based system designed to collect and disseminate
synthetic drug-related data in order to identify new trends at an
early stage, evaluate their likely importance, and track their development.
SENTRY focuses on synthetic drugs that are primarily produced via
a chemical process, such as LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide), MDMA
(3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine, also known as ecstasy), and
methamphetamine. To be truly effective as an early warning system,
however, the system also monitors prescription drugs, over-the-counter
medications, botanical substances and extracts, and chemicals and
products involved in the manufacturing of synthetic drugs.
