Heeft één van jullie wel eens van ALD-52 (N-acetyl-LSD) gehoord? Ik ben best benieuwd naar ervaringen met deze drug. Het klinkt namelijk erg goed en komt in Amerika al veel voor op LSD-zegels. Ook in de jaren 60, toen LSD illegaal werd werd dit ook weleens als de 'legale' versie gebruikt. Helaas ben ik het nog niet tegen gekomen. Het schijnt minder paranoia te veroorzaken en voor een grotere euforie te zorgen dan LSD. Het schijnt gewoon van LSD gemaakt te kunnen worden, maar het is wel een ingewikkeld proces.
Effects
In TiHKAL, Shulgin touches briefly on ALD-52 in entry 26, LSD. His writings are vague, second hand accounts, saying doses in the 50-175µg range have resulted in various conclusions. One found that there was less visual distortion than with LSD and it seems to produce less anxiety and was somewhat less potent than LSD. Another report claimed it was more effective in increasing blood pressure. Yet another could not tell them apart.
It has the same characteristics as LSD, but supposedly "without the anxiety, tenseness, and other problems inherent to it".
----------------------------
In The Hallucinogens by Hofmann and Osmond (1967), ALD-52 (D,L-acetyllysergic acid diethylamide) is listed as having a lower (approximately 1/5) intravenous toxicity (in rabbits), a lower (approximately 1/
pyretogenic effect, an equal psychological effect in man, and double the antiserotonin effect as compared with LSD.
-----------------------------
ALD might actually have advantages over
LSD, reducing any side effects but achieving a stronger trip.
Measurements of brain waves while people were taking the two drugs
showed that while LSD produced brain waves associated with intense
concentration and anxiety, ALD produced brain waves showing a more
relaxed mental state.
-------------
According to the _Psychedelics Encyclopedia_, ALD-52 is rather commonly
found on the street sold as LSD-25. However, it also claims that ALD-52
is actually a smoother trip than LSD. Either way, ALD-52 tends to
decompose into LSD-25 rather quickly, so I really doubt the quality is
changed that much.
