Surprised LSD is not mentioned.
I remember reading in one of Robert Anton Wilson's books than an early LSD study suggested a significant increase in IQ after several "therapeutic" sessions. I don't have the original book with me and can't find any info online.
I'm skeptical that LSD will have such a direct impact on measured IQ, but it definitely does something (probably acting on traits associated with creativity rather than intelligence). Wish it could be tested though...
On the strength of the psilocybin research, it wouldn't surprise me to learn LSD increased Openness as well.
Might find my http://www.gwern.net/LSD%20microdosing interesting.
