Dear Editor,
According to published sources, the usage of narcotic hallucinogen lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) is getting increased day by day in the country.People often refer to it as Acid.Because of its stimulating, pleasant, and mind-altering effects (often referred to as a trip) youths are becoming severely hooked to this. There are currently no recognised medical uses for LSD in the nation and also its usage while under a doctor’s care is not generally seen as safe as well. LSD is still listed as a Schedule 1 drug, but there is renewed interest in its potential medicinal use. In the country, it is typically obtained on the streets in wide variety of forms . As per reports, LSD distorts visual perception of shapes, colors alter sounds leads to anxiety, depression, increases heart rate, body temperature and also blood pressure.Its overdose also leads to severe psychosis and even death therefore it’s extremely important to straight away outlaw this drug in the country by the concern.
