Well, there is that story of an elephant taking 300 milligrams (not micrograms) and dying, which might or might not have been caused by the acid itself...

Enough of anything can be hazardous.

how would you even make 300mg of LSD? the precursors like ergotamine are extremely hard to get, especially in that kind of quantity

Depends on your location. I know that in Germany the derivatives like 1P-LSD or 1sP-LSD are not banned.

They are in a zone where you can buy them for “scientific research, not human consumption”, but do not trust me on that: I did not try it and am not a lawyer. I have friends that did that exact scientific research, and they basically received them in a mail from some website.

Just googling “LSD Deutschland bestellen” shows established shops with range of options.
