Characteristics effects include [[geometry|geometric visual hallucinations]], [[time distortion]], [[introspection|enhanced introspection]], and [[ego loss]]. Its classical psychedelic effects and favorable tolerability has led it to become popular among novel psychoactive substance users who use it interchangeably with LSD. | ||
Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of 1B-LSD. It is presumed to have a similar toxicity and risk profile as [[LSD]], although no evidence currently exists to support this. It is highly advised to use [[harm reduction practices]] if using this substance. | Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of 1B-LSD.

Anecdotal reports from many users suggest that the subjective effects of 1B-LSD are so similar to that of [[LSD]] so as to be virtually indistinguishable from one another. In comparison to other psychedelics such as [[psilocybin]], [[LSA]] and [[ayahuasca]], 1B-LSD is significantly more stimulating and fast-paced regarding the specific style of its physical and cognitive effects. | Anecdotal reports from many users suggest that the subjective effects of 1B-LSD are so similar to that of [[LSD]] so as to be virtually indistinguishable from one another.
