Brazilian Journal of Psychiatry October 30, 2020 Ícaro Durante, Rafael G. Dos Santos, José Carlos Bouso et al. 49 citations

A minority of participants reported being very negatively affected by persistent adverse effects. Psychiatric medication use while participating in ayahuasca rituals was not associated with increased adverse effects.
