Overview

LSD + ketanserin is a combination of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), a classic psychedelic, and ketanserin, a selective serotonin 5-HT2A receptor antagonist. LSD exerts its psychedelic effects primarily through agonism at the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor, leading to altered perception, cognition, and consciousness. Ketanserin blocks the 5-HT2A receptor and can either prevent or reverse the subjective and neural effects induced by LSD when administered before or after LSD ingestion. This combination is used in research settings to investigate the role of specific serotonin receptors in mediating psychedelic experiences and has been shown to significantly reduce or block both subjective (e.g., hallucinations, ego dissolution) and physiological effects of LSD without altering its pharmacokinetics[1][2][3][4][5].
