LSD in New Zealand!

LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) is one of the most commonly used hallucinogens in New Zealand. LSD usually comes in the form of liquid, tablets or capsules, squares of gelatine or small squares of paper (blotting paper) that have been soaked in Liquid LSD. LSD in its pure form is colorless, odorless, mildly bitter and usually in the form of white powder.

LSD is produced in crystalline form and then diluted as a liquid for production in digestible and injectable forms.

A relatively small amount of erogotamine tartrate is required to produce LSD. Twenty-five kilograms of erogotamine tartrate can produce five or six kilograms of pure LSD crystal, that could be produced into 100 million single dosage units

Usually taken orally, LSD's effects are highly variable and unpredictable. They begin within one hour and generally last between 8-12 hours. LSD causes distortions in a person's perception of reality. Sensations and feelings change much more dramatically and the user may feel several different emotions at once or swing rapidly from one emotion to another. The effects are caused by disrupting the interaction of nerve cells with the neurotransmitter serotonin.
