Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including https://www.deadiversion.usdoj.gov/fed_regs/rules/2011/fr0331.htm | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2822556 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10438027 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2809599

Ergocristine is an alkoloid originally isolated from Iberian ergot. In the rat, ergocristine acts as an alpha 2-adrenoceptors agonist, and an alpha 1-adrenoceptors antagonist. It is able to regulate glutamate uptake and dopamine release. Ergocristine is controlled as a list I chemical of because it is considered as a chemical precursor used in the illicit manufacture of lysergic acid diethylamide,

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: Ergocristine induces rotational behaviour in rats. No human data available.
