Ecstasy, LSD, cannabis, speed and thousands of dollars have been seized in a drug operation on Queensland's Sunshine Coast.
Police today said two homes at Maroochydore and Buderim were the focus of yesterday's sting, named Operation Monsoon.
Homes in Alexandra Headlands and Mooloolaba were also searched.
More than 200 ecstasy tablets, nine LSD tablets, about 1.5kg of cannabis, 104 grams of speed, drug utensils and several thousand dollars were allegedly found at the addresses.
Seven people were charged with drug-related offences.
Among them was a 24-year-old Maroochydore woman and 37-year-old Buderim man charged with trafficking, possession of a dangerous drug, utensils, stolen property and supplying a dangerous drug.
Police also charged a 39-year-old man with possessing drugs, utensils and property suspected of being used in connection with a drug offence after he allegedly flushed cannabis down a toilet as police arrived to search a Maroochydore home.
Cannabis was found in a backyard toilet pipe, police said.
A 21-year-old man also was charged with possession of cannabis and utensils.
The four accused will face Maroochydore Magistrates Court in the next two months.
Three men, a 22-year-old and two 21-year-olds, will have to attend a drug diversion program in which they're counselled about drug use.
Sunshine Coast District Superintendent Ben Hanbidge said the operation would have a significant impact on drug trafficking in the area.
"Police regularly conduct operations targeting the production and supply of drugs on the Sunshine Coast district," he said.
"This highlights to the community that illegal drug use will not be tolerated and those who are caught will be prosecuted."

Another day, another drug bust for Queensland police.
Following yesterday's discovery of a $450 million marijuana farm on the Southern Downs, tactical police have today swooped on two properties on the Sunshine Coast, seizing hundreds of ecstasy tablets, LSD and more cannabis.
Seven people have been arrested and charged over the latest - unrelated - discovery following separate raids in Maroochydoore and Buderim.
In one, officers from the Sunshine Coast District Tactical Crime Squad were forced to fish down a sewer pipe after a man allegedly tried to flush a cannabis stash down the toilet.
Police allegedly also found 200 ecstasy tablets, nine LSD tablets, speed and drug utensils at the Maroochydore unit.
A further kilogram of cannabis was uncovered during a subsequent search of a house at Buderim.
Two women, aged 24 and 27, have been charged with drug offences, while five men, aged 21 to 39, were also charged.
Senior police said they expected the swoop would have a "significant" impact on the Sunshine Coast's illegal drug trade.
