Lysergic acid hydroxyethylamide (LSH or LAH), also known as lysergic acid N-(α-hydroxyethyl)amide or as lysergic acid methyl carbinolamide, is a lysergamide alkaloid related to the psychedelic drug lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD). It is found in ergot species such as Claviceps paspali and Claviceps purpurea and in the seeds of morning glory species which contain the Symbiotic fungi species Periglandula ipomoeae.
