Ingestion of a small amount of 2-bromo-d-lysergic acid diethylamide (BOL-148), a bromine analog of LSD, produced a delirium resembling that caused by LSD itself. BOL-148 was previously thought to block the psychological effects of LSD, but the case reported here demonstrates that it can also induce an LSD-like mental disturbance. The compound is known to have an anti-serotonin effect, similar to LSD, which may underlie its psychoactive properties.
