The salt is patentable.
- sterlind 3y agoNo, Sandoz produced LSD tartarate back in the '50s. It's the common salt form of LSD. The freebase is lipophilic, and is typically dissolved in ethanol, while the salt form is water-soluble, and can be soaked into blotter paper or sublingual tablets. Amazingly, I found a Swiss clinical trial from 2021 (!) comparing the pharmacokinetics of the freebase vs. tartarate in human subjects: https://classic.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04865653 https://classic.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04865653 Switzerland is (free)based.
