Using a food-reinforced two-lever operant method, rats (n = 9) were trained to discriminate 0.16 mg/kg LSD from saline. Tests for stimulus generalization in rats so trained indicated that the purported 5-HT antagonists cyproheptadine (1.25 and 10 mg/kg), methysergide (0.16 to 10 mg/kg) and mianserin (2.5 to 40 mg/kg) produced partial generalization with LSD. The hallucinogens mescaline (5 to 40 mg/kg) and quipazine (1.25 to 5 mg/kg) were also generalized with LSD. The data suggest that cyproheptadine, methysergide and mianserin may produce partial agonist effects in addition to their antagonist action at central 5-HT receptor sites.
