A patient in Vigevano, Italy, developed psychosis after unknowingly using Salvia divinorum, a new psychoactive substance. Two prior antipsychotic treatments failed, but brexiprazole led to excellent recovery with full restoration of mental health and no significant side effects. This case highlights the clinical challenges posed by emerging designer drugs, which can cause psychiatric symptoms that are difficult to identify with standard methods.
