LSD, traditionally known for its psychedelic effects, is gaining scientific interest for therapeutic potential in neurological and psychiatric disorders. This review highlights evidence that LSD promotes neuroplasticity, modulates the serotonergic system, and induces changes in brain connectivity. Microdosing may improve creativity, focus, and emotional well-being without hallucinogenic effects. The literature review indicates that, despite regulatory and safety challenges, LSD shows promising therapeutic potential when administered in controlled settings with professional guidance. More controlled studies are needed to fully understand its mechanisms and validate clinical efficacy.
