Scientists test Shorter-Acting LSD cousin in healthy volunteers
NCT ID NCT07309471
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at a new compound called DDH-LSD, which is similar to LSD but is expected to wear off faster. Researchers will give 24 healthy adults DDH-LSD, LSD, or a placebo in random order to compare how long each lasts, how the body processes them, and what effects people feel. The goal is to understand the drug's safety and duration, not to treat any disease.
