Microdosing typically involves 1/20 to 1/10 of a recreational dose of psychedelics like LSD. [7] LSD and psilocybin are the most commonly used substances for microdosing, with volumetric liquid dosing often employed for precise LSD measurement. [7] [8] A microdose is usually 1/20 to 1/10 of an active dose of a psychedelic drug. [7] [9]
A bag of 1.5 grams of dried psilocybe cubensis mushrooms. The dosage of mushrooms containing psilocybin depends on the psilocybin and psilocin content, which can vary significantly between and within the same species but is typically around 0.5–2.0% of the dried weight of the mushroom. [40]
Psilocybin is a psychoplastogen, [131] [132] [133] which refers to a compound capable of promoting rapid and sustained neuroplasticity. Psilocybin is rapidly dephosphorylated in the body to psilocin, which is an agonist for several serotonin receptors, which are also known as 5-hydroxytryptamine
The dosage must be known and communicated, as substances may result in wildly different ratings at different doses. The rating itself gives a comparable value relating to the subjective intensity of the experience, including auditory, visual, emotional, mental, physical and other sensory effects.
Psilocybin is a prodrug for psilocin, meaning that psilocybin is de-phosphorylated in the GI tract of the body into psilocin so it can cross the blood-brain barrier. Psilocyn is a selective agonist of the 5HT receptors , specifically 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, and 5-HT2C. [ 12 ]
Psilocybe azurescens is a species of psychedelic mushroom whose main active compounds are psilocybin and psilocin. It is among the most potent of the tryptamine -bearing mushrooms, containing up to 1.8% psilocybin , 0.5% psilocin, and 0.4% baeocystin by dry weight, averaging to about 1.1% psilocybin and 0.15% psilocin.
Psilocybe subaeruginosa is a species of agaric fungus in the family Hymenogastraceae [3] described in 1927 and known from Australia [4] and New Zealand. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] [ 3 ] As a blueing member of the genus Psilocybe it contains the psychoactive compounds psilocin and psilocybin .
