Facts

  • To experience drug withdrawal the user must have first developed a physical/psychological dependence to the drug.
  • There are a variety of possible effects which can be produced by LSD use, all of which depend on many different factors including dose, setting, expectations, past experiences, and on the personality of the LSD user.
  • Rapid opiate detoxification to treat opiate withdrawal can be performed in a hospital or private clinic setting using a drug such as Naltrexone, an opiate antagonist that blocks opiate receptors and reverses the effects of opiates. Clonidine is administered at the same time to ease the symptoms of withdrawal.
  • The first body of research regarding LSD sought to find the therapeutic potential of the "psychedelic" experience in relation to the treatment of chronic alcoholism and mental illness.
