psilocybine Usage And Synthesis
DescriptionThe intentional ingestion of hallucinogenic mushrooms by Mesoamerican natives dates back centuries. Early European explorers documented the Mayan and Aztec symbolism depicting the use of mushroom during spiritual ceremonies. Albert Hofmann first synthesized lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) from psilocybin extracted from mushrooms. During the 1960s and 1970s, researchers conducted experiments on the utility of psilocybin for psychotherapy before drug laws curbed its use. Psilocybin is described as an entheogen, a substance used to raise spiritual consciousness. Today most countries have outlawed psilocybin possession; however, widespread illicit use continues.

UsesThe most common use of this mushroom is to induce recreational hallucinations. Some Native American groups continue to employ psilocybin-containing mushroom species in official ceremonies. The adjunctive use of psilocybin for mainstream psychotherapy has been discontinued. Hallucinogenic mushrooms are generally considered a low-harm drug of abuse.
UsesThe major of two hallucinogenic components of Teonanacatl, the sacred mushroom of Mexico, the other component being psilocin. Psychomimetic. Controlled substance (hallucinogen).
DefinitionAn indole derivative. An alkaloid from certain mushrooms; hallucinogenic drug.
Safety ProfilePoison by intravenous route. Moderately toxic by intraperitoneal route. Human systemic effects by ingestion and intraperitoneal routes: euphoria, hallucinations, toxic psychosis, muscle weakness, nausea or vomiting, visual field changes. Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of NOx and POx.
