Ergoline

Ergoline is a chemical compound whose structure serves as the skeleton for a diverse range of alkaloids and synthetic drugs. Substances derived from ergoline are used clinically as oxytocics and in the treatment of migraine and Parkinson's disease, and are implicated in the disease ergotism and in the action of psychedelic drugs such as ololiuhqui and LSD. Ergometrine and ergotamine are listed as Table I precursors under the United Nations Convention Against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substanceshttp://www.incb.org/pdf/e/list/red.pdf.
