use of 1P-LSD

🧪 1. Research Use

• Pharmacological studies: Scientists use 1P-LSD to study how lysergamide compounds interact with serotonin receptors, especially 5-HT2A, which is responsible for psychedelic effects.
• Prodrug for LSD: 1P-LSD is believed to convert to LSD in the body (via hydrolysis), meaning it serves as a sort of “prodrug” for LSD. This makes it valuable in experimental settings to better understand LSD’s mechanism.

🧠 2. Psychoactive/Psychedelic Use (Unofficial, Non-Medical)

• Some individuals use 1P-LSD recreationally or in microdoses for:
  • Altered perception (visuals, time distortion, synesthesia)
  • Enhanced creativity or introspection
  • Spiritual or philosophical exploration
  • Microdosing for mood or productivity (though evidence is largely anecdotal)
