Guest guest Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Thalidamide, it caused lots of deformities in babies born to women given that drug when pregnant, Lysergic acid dethalidamide.

I was 5 days off! LSD was discovered on April 16, 1943. Now there's an interesting drug! Had it's use in the day, but like a lot of things went haywire.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Oh there are real medical uses for LSD as well as Jane. With this drug though, I think we would need to be a lot more careful.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Yes, there were studies done that proved LSD helped alcoholics. In fact, one of the co-founders of Alcoholics Anonymous was involved with an experimental college in CA that was studying the effects of LSD on alcoholism. And thalidamide was an entirely different drug. It is the one they prescribed to women in the 50's for morning sickness. While I'm sure LSD is not good for a pregnant woman, it was not the drug that caused the horrific birth defects. Shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
