MLD-41, also known as 1-methyl-LSD, is a psychedelic drug of the lysergamide family related to lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD).[1][2] It has about 33% of the psychoactive potency of LSD.[1][2] It has been studied with regard to cross-tolerance with LSD.[3] Extensive metabolism of other 1-methylated lysergamides to their secondary amine derivatives, for instance methysergide (1-methylmethylergometrine) conversion into methylergometrine, has been observed.[4][5]

Metabolites of methysergide also exhibit pharmacological activity. Methylergometrine (one of methysergide's metabolites) is responsible for methysergide's therapeutic effects regarding migraine treatment (Müller-Schweinitzer and Tapparelli 1986). [...] The systemic availability of methysergide after oral administration is only 13%, due to a high degree of first-pass metabolism by N-1 demethylation to methylergometrine. After oral administration, the plasma concentrations of the metabolite are considerably higher than those of the parent drug, and the area under the plasma concentration curve (AUC) for methylergometrine is more than ten times greater than for methysergide.
