I know about Ask Erowid. But there’s nothing about my med on the site. The med I’m taking came out less than 15 years ago.

Edit: Latuda is the med I’m looking stuff up on.

    what med and what psychedelic is it? for example something like LSD, it has few severe negative interactions, so you’re likely to be in the clear, and something like MDMA has way more interactions and risk.

        got it. afaik antipsychotics don’t have major negative interactions with most psychedelics since the actions are pretty different. i have heard anecdotally that antipsychs will severely reduce the effects of acid/shrooms.

        be safe, test your drugs, don’t overindulge, and you should be good to go.

          Here’s a pretty good article. Currently doing some more reading to find more resources for you: https://mind-foundation.org/psychedelic-antidepressant-interactions/

          Basically raises your risk for serotonin syndrome. This is particularly close-to-home for me because I had a close friend who was taking an SSRI who began using psychedelics of all sorts (psilocybin mushrooms, LSD, MDMA, etc) & i watched her fry her brain. One time on a trip, she couldn’t stop saying the same thing over, & over, & over, & over again. She didn’t know who she was. This is coming from someone who has used psych’s before; they’re a beautiful time, but not was SSRI’s. Don’t take the risk.

            Update, I’m having a hard time finding anything else. I think this article does a good job explaining the science behind why the risk of serotonin syndrome is raised when you combine psychedelics with SSRI’s. Please be careful friend & do not combine these two classes of substances

    Latuda is an anti-psychotic. It will make your trip much lighter. Don’t know a ton about it, so I’d avoid mescaline and MDMA. Shrooms and LSD are fine. However, people on Latuda are sometimes also prescribed Lithium, and if you are you DO NOT take psychedelics

    Cunningham law

    Post that it’s safe on a more serious drug interaction forum. If you get banned it’s probably because somebody reported it as dangerous misinfo /s
