Lysergic acid amide is not named under that name or as ergine in either Act, and the settled part of the answer is that it is not in the First Schedule to the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952, so it is not a dangerous drug. Lysergide is in Part III of that Schedule, and ergine and lysergide are both amides of the same acid rather than isomers, esters, ethers or salts of one another, which are the only generic extensions Part III carries. The Poisons List separately carries «Lysergic acid; its salts» as a poison, and the LSD entry there extends to «its derivatives»; how far that reaches an amide of the parent acid is a question the Poisons List does not answer. What is settled is the absence from the dangerous drugs schedule.

LSD is named in Part III of the First Schedule to the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952 as «(+)-Lysergide, (+)-N-N-diethyllysergamide (d-lysergic acid diethylamide)». It is a dangerous drug and it has no section 37(da) presumption weight. The Poisons List carries the same substance as «LSD or LSD-25 or (+)-N,N-diethyllysergamide or d-lysergic acid diethylamide; its derivatives», with the dangerous drug marker.
