I appreciate your warning, and would like to echo it, from a safety perspective.
I would also like to point out that we should be approaching this, as every risk, from a harm reduction standpoint. A drug with impurities that could save your life or prevent serious harm is better than no drug and death. People need to be empowered to make the best decisions they can, given the available resources and education.
I would recommend an HPLC and a competent analytical chemist to gather data and decide whether or not a batch is safe to consume.
