🧪 Cutting Agent Overview (7 agents)

All available cutting agents ranked by safety. Mix them with drugs to stretch your supply — but watch the toxicity.

Agent	Toxicity	Quality Impact	Value Impact	Risk Level
Sugar `ADDITIVE-SUGAR`	Very Low	Moderate drop	Neutral	SAFE
Baking Soda `ADDITIVE-BAKING-SODA`	Low	Moderate drop	Slight boost	SAFE
Paracetamol `ADDITIVE-PARACETAMOL`	Low	Low drop	Slight boost	SAFE
Ibuprofen `ADDITIVE-IBUPROFEN`	Moderate	Moderate drop	Slight boost	MODERATE
Viagra `ADDITIVE-VIAGRA`	Moderate	Moderate drop	Moderate boost	MODERATE
Rat Poison `ADDITIVE-RAT-POISON`	Very High	Heavy drop	Moderate boost	DANGEROUS
Fentanyl `ADDITIVE-FENTANYL`	Extreme	Potency boost	High boost	LETHAL

⚠️ Warning: Cutting with Fentanyl or Rat Poison can kill clients. Dead clients are permanently removed from the game, shrinking your customer pool. The short-term profit boost is rarely worth the long-term loss.

💊 Paracetamol

Paracetamol

Safest All-Rounder

The best general-purpose cutting agent. Low toxicity with minimal quality penalty — the go-to choice for most drug types.

ADDITIVE-PARACETAMOL

Attribute	Details
Toxicity Modifier	Low — minimal health impact on clients
Quality Penalty	Low — clients barely notice at reasonable ratios
Value Modifier	Slight boost — mimics drug effects enough to fool clients
Purchase Price	Cheap — available at pharmacies and dealers
Best Used With	Cocaine, Amphetamine, Heroin, Meth
Max Safe Ratio	Up to 30% — quality stays acceptable
Verdict	⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best overall cutting agent in the game

💊 Ibuprofen

Ibuprofen

Budget Alternative

Slightly more toxic than paracetamol but still usable. Good backup when paracetamol supply runs dry.

ADDITIVE-IBUPROFEN

Attribute	Details
Toxicity Modifier	Moderate — noticeable health impact at high ratios
Quality Penalty	Moderate — clients start complaining above 20%
Value Modifier	Slight boost — marginally better than sugar
Purchase Price	Cheap — widely available
Best Used With	Amphetamine, Ecstasy
Max Safe Ratio	Up to 20% — beyond this toxicity climbs fast
Verdict	⭐⭐⭐ Decent backup — use paracetamol when available

💙 Viagra

Viagra

Party Drug Enhancer

Best value modifier among moderate-risk agents. Pairs especially well with ecstasy and party drugs.

ADDITIVE-VIAGRA

Attribute	Details
Toxicity Modifier	Moderate — manageable at low ratios
Quality Penalty	Moderate — alters the perceived effects
Value Modifier	Moderate boost — clients perceive added "energy"
Purchase Price	Moderate — more expensive than basic agents
Best Used With	Ecstasy, Cocaine
Max Safe Ratio	Up to 20% — higher ratios cause noticeable side effects
Verdict	⭐⭐⭐ Niche — excellent for ecstasy, mediocre for others

☠️ Fentanyl

Fentanyl

Lethal Potency Booster

Massively increases potency and perceived value, but extreme toxicity can kill clients outright. High risk, high reward — if your customers survive.

ADDITIVE-FENTANYL

☠️ DANGER: Fentanyl is the most lethal cutting agent. Even small percentages dramatically spike toxicity. Clients can overdose and die permanently, removing them from the game world and generating massive DEA heat spikes.

Attribute	Details
Toxicity Modifier	Extreme — can cause client overdose and death
Quality Penalty	None — actually boosts perceived potency
Value Modifier	High boost — clients feel a stronger effect
Purchase Price	Expensive — hard to source
Best Used With	Heroin (extremely dangerous), Cocaine
Max Safe Ratio	5% MAX — anything higher risks client death
DEA Heat Impact	Client deaths spike heat dramatically
Verdict	⭐ Avoid — only for desperate short-term profit plays

🥄 Baking Soda

Baking Soda

Essential Ingredient

Safe all-purpose filler and essential ingredient for cooking crack from cocaine. Dual-purpose makes it always worth stocking.

ADDITIVE-BAKING-SODA

Attribute	Details
Toxicity Modifier	Low — very safe for clients
Quality Penalty	Moderate — noticeable at higher ratios
Value Modifier	Slight boost — adds bulk convincingly
Purchase Price	Very cheap — available everywhere
Best Used With	Cocaine (for crack production), Marijuana, Heroin
Max Safe Ratio	Up to 25% as a cut — required for crack cooking
Special Use	Cocaine + Baking Soda → Crack (lab production)
Verdict	⭐⭐⭐⭐ Essential — always keep stocked for crack production

💡 Tip: Baking soda is the only cutting agent with a dual purpose — it works as a standard filler for any powder drug AND is the required reagent for cooking cocaine into crack. Always keep extra on hand.

🐀 Rat Poison

Rat Poison

Toxic Filler

Cheap and readily available, but extremely dangerous. High toxicity makes clients sick or worse. Only used by desperate dealers.

ADDITIVE-RAT-POISON

Attribute	Details
Toxicity Modifier	Very High — causes sickness and potential death
Quality Penalty	Heavy — clients can taste something is very wrong
Value Modifier	Moderate boost — adds bulk/weight cheaply
Purchase Price	Very cheap — the cheapest cutting agent
Best Used With	Not recommended for any drug
Max Safe Ratio	10% MAX — even small amounts cause problems
Verdict	⭐ Terrible — cheap but destroys your client base

🍬 Sugar

Sugar

Harmless Bulk Filler

The safest cutting agent available. Almost zero toxicity makes it ideal for cautious dealers who prioritize keeping clients alive and happy.

ADDITIVE-SUGAR

Attribute	Details
Toxicity Modifier	Very Low — safest option available
Quality Penalty	Moderate — dilutes purity more than paracetamol
Value Modifier	Neutral — adds no perceived value
Purchase Price	Very cheap — available everywhere
Best Used With	Marijuana, Hashish, Amphetamine
Max Safe Ratio	Up to 30% — very forgiving
Verdict	⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for beginners — zero risk of killing clients

🏆 Agent Tier Rankings

S TIER Always Use

Paracetamol — best all-rounder

A TIER Reliable Choices

Baking Soda — essential for crack

Sugar — safest option

B TIER Situational

Ibuprofen — backup painkiller

Viagra — ecstasy specialist

F TIER Avoid

Rat Poison — kills your business

Fentanyl — kills your clients

💡 Pro Tip: The optimal strategy for most players is: stock up on Paracetamol as your primary agent, keep Baking Soda for crack production, and use Sugar as a cheap backup. Cut at 15–20% for the best profit-to-reputation ratio. Never go above 25% unless you don't care about repeat customers.
