translation of the original warning below
De afgelopen weken zijn bij het DIMS verschillende malen tabletten ingeleverd met een ADE-logo. Deze pillen kunnen levensgevaarlijk hoge doses MDMA bevatten. Omdat de pillen in het hele land gesignaleerd zijn, en vanwege de doseringen met gevaarlijk hoge uitschieters, is besloten tot een landelijke waarschuwingsactie.
Het ADE logo refereert aan het Amsterdam Dance Event van 14-18 oktober. Er zijn waarschuwingsposters gemaakt die landelijk verspreid zijn via instellingen. Ook zijn gebruikers gericht gewaarschuwd via fora voor drugsgebruikers.
ADE-XTC PILHet Trimbos-instituut waarschuwt in samenwerking met instellingen voor verslavingszorg en preventie al enkele jaren- onder meer via diverse fora waar gebruikers van ecstasy zich bevinden – voor steeds hoger gedoseerde ecstasytabletten. Gebruik van hooggedoseerde ecstasy is extra riskant en verhoogt de kans op overdosering, waardoor oververhitting, acute psychotische verschijnselen, hartritmestoornissen en leverfalen kunnen optreden. Gebruik kan fatale gevolgen hebben.
Het Trimbos-instituut baseert zich onder andere op recente gegevens die worden verzameld door het DIMS (Drugs Informatie en Monitoring Systeem) en de MDI (Monitor Drugs Incidenten).
in the last few weeks there have been at various times tablets sent in to DIMS (drugs info monitoring services) with an ADE-logo. These pills can contain life threateningly high doses of MDMA. Because the pills have been noticed in the whole country; and the dangerously high levels of the dosage; it has been decided to send out a national warning;
The ADE logo refers to the Amsterdam Dance Event of 14-18 october. There have been warning posters made and distributed nationally . Also users have been directly targeted via forums for drug users.

Beware : There are different varieties of this pill in circulation.
the trimbos institute works in conjunction with rehab and harm reduction organisations for some years as well as on various forums where ecstasy users may congregate; to warn them of the risks of higher doses tablets. Use of higher dose tablets is extra risky and rasies the chance of overdosing through which overheating, acute psychotic episodes, disturbance of heart rhythms and liver failure. This use (of xtc) can have fatal consequences.
The trimbos institute data is based on information collected by DIMS and MDI (two monitoring systems similar to UK National Treatment Agency and others NHS set up)
whats the dosage per pill for it to be lethal and not have any adulterants in it? thats absurd to think about
Whoah for good MDMA, but probably with high tolorence) I’d have imagined I’d done more than thatt in a single dose but I WOULD NOT suggest anyone try but what it is to an person unfamiliar with MDMA idk.
Trimbos usually issue alerts when pills have over 250-300 mg MDMA in them. Unfortunately the local test labs now discourage results being posted online as it can put their funding at risk (they still have to deal with considerable opposition from rightwing politicians and the conservative Calvinist religious groups found towards the South of the country).
large doses (around 1000mg good quality MDMA taken very quickly) have resulted in emergency hospital admissions and/or fatalities amongst otherwise young and healthy European users. This overdose is less likely to result in fatalities or irreversible health damage than PMA or other similar stimulants but is still a risky level (higher dosages are also much more likely to cause longer term mental health problems which are not fatal but still very unpleasant).
