Let’s break them down one at a time. 1. LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide). Also known as acid, LSD is probably the most best-known (and most infamous) psychedelic substance besides mushrooms.

Researchers have designed compounds that hit the same key receptor that LSD activates without causing hallucinations, according to an article (“Bespoke library docking for 5-HT 2A receptor ...

A team of researchers at the University of California, Davis, made small tweaks to the molecular structure of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) to see if it could be turned into an effective brain ...

Seizure of LSD prodrugs, such as ALD-52, increased at the height of the COVID pandemic in Italy. Japanese authorities have been dealing with an increasing number of similar LSD prodrug compounds.

For prodrugs, however, a small part of the molecule needs to be removed or substituted before it can act on those receptors. This is done inside the body by natural processes. ALD-52 (1-acetyl-LSD), ...
