Psychedelic Therapy: A Primer for Primary Care Clinicians-Psilocybin.

American Journal of Therapeutics Burton J. Tabaac, Kenneth Shinozuka, Alejandro Arenas et al. 14 citations

The primary psychoactive drug in magic mushrooms, psilocybin, induces profound alterations in consciousness through the 5-HT2A receptor. This review consolidates current research findings to elucidate the pharmacology, safety profile, and clinical applications of psilocybin. Despite initial concerns that psilocybin could cause psychosis, contemporary research has demonstrated that psilocybin is...

No mechanistic explanation for this heterogeneity has been established. Here we propose and validate a two-threshold model in which the psilocybin dose-response...
