Journal of Complementary Medicine & Alternative Healthcare September 17, 2024 Dírcea Rodrigues
A systematic review of clinical trials assessed the neurobiology, efficacy, safety, and feasibility of psilocybin for treating depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), smoking, and alcoholism. The review suggests psilocybin shows promise for several mental disorders, with evidence indicating potential benefits, particularly for depression and anxiety. The findings highlight the need for further research to confirm efficacy and safety across these conditions.
