title: Tolerance develops to LSD while the drug is exerting its maximal behavioral effects: implications for the neural bases of tolerance.
abstract: Tolerance to a test dose of 50 mg/kg of LSD occurred within 0.5-1.0 h following an initial dose of 10 mg/kg of the drug, using limb flicking and abortive grooming as behavioral indices in the cat. These findings represent an example of very rapidly developing drug tolerance using a behavioral index. These data are discussed within the context of hypotheses concerning the neurochemical bases of tolerance to LSD.
