1P-LSD

1P-LSD or 1-propionyl-lysergic acid diethylamide is a psychedelic drug of the lysergamide class that is a derivative and functional analogue of LSD and a homologue of ALD-52. It has been sold online as a designer drug since 2015.[1][2][3][4][5][6] It modifies the LSD molecule by adding a propionyl group to the nitrogen molecule of LSD's indole.

Pharmacology

In mice, 1P-LSD produces LSD-like effects with 38% the potency of LSD and it is therefore classed as a serotonergic hallucinogen.[7] However, 1P-LSD itself is unable to bind to the serotenergic 5-HT2A receptors.[8][9] But since LSD is detected when 1P-LSD is incubated in human serum,[7] 1P-LSD may act, at least in part, as a prodrug for LSD.

Effects

The effects profile of 1P-LSD is not well defined in the scientific literature. It is generally thought to be comparable to that of LSD.[10] Many anecdotal reports indicate that 1P-LSD has a slightly shorter duration than LSD in humans, with the majority of users stating that they cannot distinguish the qualitative effects of 1P-LSD from LSD.
