• Description: Psilocybin is a hallucinogenic agent that binds to the serotonin receptor and produces psilocybin-induced visual distortions, changes in perception, and alterations in mood. It is used as a pharmacological treatment for psychological disorders such as anxiety, depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder. In humans, psilocybin increases metabolic rate and monoamine neurotransmitter levels in the occipital cortex. The effects of this drug are dose-dependent with low doses producing perceptual changes, while higher doses produce euphoria and hallucinations. Psilocybin has been shown to be an effective treatment for treatment-resistant symptoms of obsessive compulsive disorder with significantly reduced symptoms after six months of therapy.
