Lysergic acid diethylamide, known as LSD, is one of the most powerful hallucinogens out there. It is a drug of extreme unpredictability, and is banned for use in the United States, even though it was once used as a psychiatric drug, and has been used in secret government tests.
In pure form it is a colorless, odorless, tasteless solid. LSD is typically either swallowed (oral) or held under the tongue (sublingual), usually on a substrate such as absorbent blotter paper, a sugar cube, or gelatin.In its liquid form, it can also be administered by intramuscular or intravenous injection.SD is very potent, with 20â30 Âµg (micrograms) being the threshold dose. Hofmann discovered the psychedelic properties of LSD in 1943. It was introduced commercially in 1947 by Sandoz Laboratories under the trade-name Delysid as a drug with various psychiatric uses.
