Many psychoactive substances, including [[benzodiazepines]] and certain [[psychedelic]]s, are active at less than a single milligram. Such small quantities cannot be accurately measured with common digital scales, so the drug must instead be dosed volumetrically by weighing out larger amounts of the compound and dissolving it in a calculated volume of a suitable liquid. | Many psychoactive substances, including [[benzodiazepines]] and certain [[psychedelic]]s, are active at less than a single milligram.
