Scope note: Derivado semi-sintético del cornezuelo (Claviceps purpurea). Tiene complejos efectos sobre el sistema serotoninérgico, incluido el antagonismo en algunos receptores periféricos, acción tanto agonista como antagonista en los receptores de serotonina del sistema nervioso central y posibles efectos sobre el recambio de serotonina. Es un potente alucinógeno, aunque los mecanismos de este efecto no se conocen bien.

Scope note: Semisynthetic derivative of ergot (Claviceps purpurea). It has complex effects on serotonergic systems including antagonism at some peripheral serotonin receptors, both agonist and antagonist actions at central nervous system serotonin receptors, and possibly effects on serotonin turnover. It is a potent hallucinogen, but the mechanisms of that effect are not well understood.
