Abstract
This systematic review analyzes the current literature on the potential therapeutic use of classic psychedelics (i.e., psilocybin, lysergic acid diethylamide [LSD], N,N-dimethyltryptamine [DMT], 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine [5-MeO-DMT], mescaline, and other classic psychedelic analogs utilized in preclinical models) in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and related disorders. Our search identified 23 articles meeting our predetermined eligibility criteria, comprising 2 non-systematic reviews, 11 preclinical studies investigating the use of classic psychedelics or analogs in preclinical models of OCD, 8 case studies or case reports, and 2 clinical trials. This review provides an up-to-date synthesis of psychedelic OCD research, bridging preclinical findings, historical case reports, and initial clinical trial outcomes. Psilocybin appears to be the most widely used classic psychedelic and is well-tolerated in both OCD and body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) populations, with some participants experiencing significant symptom reduction. This review contributes to our understanding of the potential of classic psychedelics (in particular LSD and psilocybin) as novel therapeutic interventions for OCD and related disorders, offering insights into future research directions and clinical applications in this emerging field.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
