I just moved, and as it turns out one of the roommates has access to LSD, which is something I’ve always wanted to try. I’m taking a few prescription medicines though, and I don’t know how to find out if any of them interact with it. This is obviously something that I can’t ask any of the pharmacists that I work with about, so I turn to the SDMB.

If anyone here just happens to know, I’m taking Nexium, Zyrtec, Rozerem and Zanaflex. If noone knows off the top of their head, does anyone know where I can find more information about them?

Is this the kind of question we can answer within the rules of the board?

I doubt it - it IS asking about an illegal activity i.e. consumptions of LSD.

**Chaoticbear** , you may want to contact a moderator to retract this thread.

I’m going to go ahead and close this one.
