From the Director

Drugs with street names like acid, angel dust, and vitamin K distort the way a user perceives time, motion, colors, sounds, and self. These drugs can disrupt a person's ability to think and communicate rationally, or even to recognize reality, sometimes resulting in bizarre or dangerous behavior. Hallucinogens such as LSD cause emotions to swing wildly and real-world sensations to assume unreal, sometimes frightening aspects. Dissociative drugs like PCP and ketamine may make a user feel disconnected and out of control.

Los alucinógenos: LSD, peyote, psilocibina y PCP

Durante siglos se han usado compuestos alucinógenos que se encuentran en algunas plantas y hongos o setas (o sus extractos), principalmente para los ritos religiosos. Casi todos los alucinógenos contienen nitrógeno y se clasifican como alcaloides. Muchos alucinógenos tienen una estructura química similar a la de los neurotransmisores naturales (por ejemplo, parecida a la de la acetilcolina, la serotonina o la catecolamina).
