Chemistry:EcPLA

From HandWiki

EcPLA, also known as N-ethyl-N-cyclopropyllysergamide, is a psychedelic drug of the lysergamide family related to lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD).[1][2][3] It is an isomer of LSZ and is closely related to other amide-substituted lysergamides like MiPLA.[2][1][4][3] The drug has been encountered as a novel designer drug.[3]

Use and effects

EcPLA produces psychedelic effects in humans.[3]

Interactions

Pharmacology

Pharmacodynamics

EcPLA has been found to interact with serotonin receptors and dopamine receptors, among other targets.[2] It is a potency agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, and 5-HT2C receptors.[2]

The drug produces the head-twitch response, a behavioral proxy of psychedelic effects, in rodents.[2] It has about 40% of the potency of LSD in this regard.[2]

Pharmacokinetics

The in-vitro metabolism of EcPLA has been studied.[5]

Chemistry

Analogues

Analogues of EcPLA include MiPLA, LAMPA (MPLA), EPLA, EiPLA, ETFELA, and LSZ, among others.[4][2][1]

History

EcPLA was first described in the scientific literature by a team that included Adam Halberstadt, Alexander Stratford, Jason Wallach, and David E. Nichols in 2019.[2] It was developed by Lizard Labs. The drug was encountered online as a novel designer drug in around 2020 and became more widely available in early 2022.[3]
