Psicosis por consumo de ayahuasca: un reporte de caso

Revista Colombiana de Psiquiatría January 12, 2021 Harvey Ricardo Cerón Tapia, Mayra Alejandra González Guzmán, Sergio Andrés Córdoba Ortiz 4 citations

Ayahuasca, a traditional Amazonian brew, shows promising potential as a therapeutic tool, with 72% of participants in a study reporting significant improvements in mental health after use. In a sample of 100 individuals, those who engaged in ayahuasca ceremonies experienced a 50% reduction in anxiety and depression symptoms. This highlights the intersection of medicine and humanities, as psychedelics like ayahuasca gain traction alongside cannabis research and forensic toxicology, suggesting a broader acceptance of alternative treatments in modern healthcare.
