Original Date: July 21, 2024
Dr. Erica Zelfand takes a deep-dive into the latest research on microdosing to summarize what we know - and what we don’t - about the effects of taking sub-perceptual doses of LSD and psilocybin. Featuring real cases from her practice, Dr. Zelfand explains various dosage protocols, reviews the literature available, and summarizes general trends. The proposed mechanisms of action of microdosing are explained, along with safety considerations and drug-drug interactions.
