'''Lysergic acid amide''' (also known as '''ergine''', '''d-lysergic acid amide''', '''d-lysergamide''', and '''LSA''') is a [[naturally-occurring]] [[Psychoactive class::psychedelic]] substance of the [[chemical class::lysergamide]] class.

LSA is an ergot [[alkaloid]] and the main psychoactive constituent of [[LSA#Morning_glory_seeds_.28MGS.29|morning glory seeds]] and [[LSA#Hawaiian_baby_woodrose_seeds_.28HBWR.29|Hawaiian baby woodrose seeds]].{{citation needed}}

LSA is chemically related to [[LSD]] and ~~supposedly produces~~ similar effects, although the extent to which ~~this is true~~ is unclear.

LSA is chemically related to [[LSD]] and is said to produce similar effects, although the extent to which it does is unclear.

LSA was first described in 1932 as part of an investigation into the alkaloids found in ergot.<ref>Smith, S., & Timmis, G. M. (1932). 98. The alkaloids of ergot. Part III. Ergine, a new base obtained by the degradation of ergotoxine and ergotinine. Journal of the Chemical Society (Resumed), 763-766.</ref>
