Epidemiology of Hallucinogen Microdosing Among Young Adults in the United States: A National Study

Approximately 1 in 15 US young adults reported microdosing hallucinogens, with strong associations between microdosing and other substance use. Despite growing interest in potential therapeutic applications of microdosing, the context in which microdosing typically occurs, including patterns of other drug and alcohol use, raises concerns and warrants focused prevention efforts.

Abstract

Approximately 1 in 15 US young adults reported microdosing hallucinogens, with strong associations between microdosing and other substance use. Despite growing interest in potential therapeutic applications of microdosing, the context in which microdosing typically occurs, including patterns of other drug and alcohol use, raises concerns and warrants focused prevention efforts.
