WEDINOS (an acronym for Welsh Emerging Drugs and Identification of Novel Substances) is a public health laboratory in Cardiff, Wales devoted to drug checking and epidemiological surveillance of recreational drugs and prescription drugs obtained from unsanctioned sources. It is the only fixed-site facility in the United Kingdom devoted to this task.[1][2] It was established in 2013, and is funded by Public Health Wales.[1][3]
Although based and funded in Wales, WEDINOS analyzes samples sent from anywhere in the United Kingdom.[1][4]
