Abstract in brief

  • Hallucinogens are divided into different classes like psychedelics, entactogens, dissociatives, and atypical hallucinogens, each with unique chemical structures and mechanisms but all causing significant changes in consciousness, perception, and emotion.
  • While these drugs are often used recreationally for their mind-altering effects, recent research suggests they may have potential therapeutic benefits, especially in mental health treatment, beyond their abuse potential.
  • The review discusses the historical background, molecular differences, and clinical research on these drugs, focusing particularly on psychedelics, entactogens, and dissociatives, to explore their possible medical uses.
