System to Retrieve Information from Drug Evidence

System to Retrieve Information from Drug Evidence

The System to Retrieve Information from Drug Evidence, or STRIDE, database is a United States Drug Enforcement Agency system used to track the prices of drugs obtained in sting operations. [http://www.dea.gov/foia/stride.html] Academic uses of the STRIDE data to look for trends in pricing and other data has been criticized because the sampling entered into the system is limited to successful operations and is thus relatively small and not necessarily representative of the greater market.
