Microdosing LSD (10 µg every third day for six weeks) increased sleep duration in healthy adult male volunteers. On nights after dosing, the LSD group slept an extra 24.3 minutes per night compared to placebo, with no change in sleep on dosing days. Sleep stage proportions and physical activity remained unchanged. The findings indicate that microdosing LSD modifies physiological sleep requirements, and the objective changes are unlikely to be a placebo effect.
