High-dose LSD-laced paper tabs bearing Jacqueline Badran’s face have turned up in Zurich. The city’s Drug Information Center is warning of the risks.
The LSD-laced paper in question contains more than twice the usual amount of the active ingredient, as the “Tages-Anzeiger” reported on Friday afternoon. According to an analysis published a few days ago by the City of Zurich’s Drug Information Center (DIZ), 180 micrograms of LSD were detected. Doses of 150 micrograms or more are considered high doses and can trigger severe anxiety and paranoia.
According to the DIZ, this is apparently the first time a Swiss celebrity’s face has been printed on drugs. On the black market, well-known figures from politics and pop culture are frequently used as advertising vehicles.
