ETH-LAD, or ETHLAD, also known as 6-ethyl-6-nor-lysergic acid diethylamide (6-ethyl-6-nor-LSD), is a psychedelic drug of the lysergamide family related to lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD; also known as METH-LAD). It is slightly more potent than LSD and is among the most potent psychedelics known. The drug has been encountered as a novel designer drug in Europe. In addition, a prodrug of ETH-LAD, 1P-ETH-LAD, has been developed and encountered.
