Abstract
A REVIEW ON BEHAVIOURAL NEUROBIOLOGY OF PSYCHEDELIC DRUGS
Supreetha Srinivasan*, Shubamalya L. G., Nirmita S. B. and Kirthika N.
ABSTRACT
Psychedelic substances' remarkable effects on human mind and behaviour have sparked a fresh interest in science. The behavioural neurobiology of psychedelics is examined in this study, with particular attention paid to their mechanisms of action, which include effects on brain plasticity and serotonin receptor modulation. We describe their historical background, including everything from their use in antiquity to contemporary scientific research, and we divide them into two groups: classical (like LSD and psilocybin) and atypical (like MDMA and ketamine). Potential therapeutic uses in mental health issues are explored with behavioural impacts, such as changed perception and cognition. We also discuss the difficulties that are currently facing safety, regulations, and ethical issues. Lastly, future prospects in clinical applications and research are examined, with a focus on how psychedelics may change the way that mental therapy paradigms are used.
