When purchased in bulk, test strips range around 25 cents and include testing for drugs such as GHB and ketamine, which are often used to “roofie” customers.

“There’s no taste. There’s no scent. There is no color to them. They’re really tough to detect, but very fortunately, they’re easy to test,” Lowenthal added. “Just one drop of your drink onto a test coaster, and you know immediately if your drink has been spiked.”

The new law will also require businesses to advertise the test kits and inform customers they are available.

“Don’t get roofied! Drink spiking drug test kits available here. Ask a staff member for details,” the advertisement’s note should read.

Lowenthal hopes to expand the law to more categories of establishments, including college campuses.
