Use and effects

PARGY-LAD is hallucinogenic similarly to LSD, but is considerably less potent than LSD, with a dose of 160 μg producing only mild effects, and 500 μg required for full activity. [1]

Interactions

History

PARGY-LAD was developed by David E. Nichols and colleagues at Purdue University in the 1980s [3] and is described by Alexander Shulgin in his 1997 book TiHKAL (Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved). [1]
