Florida Drug and Alcohol Traffic Awareness TSLAE Practice Exam

Which of the following is considered a Hallucinogen?

1. Heroin

2. LSD

3. Barbiturates

4. Synthetic Testosterone

The correct answer is: LSD

Hallucinogens are psychoactive substances that cause hallucinations or perceptual distortions, resulting in changes in thinking, self-awareness, and emotions. Heroin (A) and Barbiturates (C) are considered sedatives and tranquilizers, which depress the central nervous system and slow down brain activity. Synthetic Testosterone (D) is a performance-enhancing drug that is a synthetic version of the male hormone testosterone and is primarily used to treat medical conditions. It does not have the same effects as Hallucinogens. LSD (B) is the only substance listed that is a Hallucinogen. It is a synthetic drug that can cause hallucinations, altered images, and sensations. Therefore, B is considered the correct answer.
