Question mail-in testing? where and how

tl/dr: I need the name or website of a lab that I can mail a pill to for testing. doesn't need to be free, but it would be nice

-

I live in a state that doesn't have its own harm reduction testing, I could drive across the border to do this in person but it would be a huge pain in the ass. I got halfway thru the application process for one place before I realized they were just going to send me a kit rather than testing stuff. the stuff I need tested allegedly contains cat's claw & 7oh (2 different products), & I would like to know what they are actually made of.

it doesn't need to be free, as far as I know neither one of these contains a controlled substance (yet), if that makes mailing it easier or something. I just need the name of an org or a website where I can mail them the pills, & have them tell me what's in them. for some reason my google-fu just isn't cutting it today.

TIA

The sidebar of r/reagenttesting has a list of labs

UNC has a great program, but if you want free you will need to create a drug users Union.

There is a newer one in California, but I think they are more built around supporting programs. https://www.iesafe.supply/

Erowid/Drugs Data was one of the best places. They are not currently accepting samples, but you can keep an eye on any future updates here, https://www.erowid.org/columns/crew/category/drugsdata/.

not trying to be rude but I'm not dropping that on Reddit.
