Title: ergotamine drugs pulled
Post by tommyD on Mar 2^nd, 2007, 4:17pm

A bunch of ergotamine tartrate products have been ordered off the market by the FDA because they are unapproved.

Ergotamine tartrate is the key ingredient in synthesizing LSD. You can't make LSD without it. Someone tipped off the gov't that those ergotamine tartrate meds were being used to make LSD so they're being illegalized. :-/

That's all fine and dandy with me. As long as they don't go and screw with my DHE supply line, things could get hairy real quick !!! LOL
