Psilocybin & Psilocyn and other Tryptamines
A number of Schedule I hallucinogenic substances are
classified chemically as tryptamines. Most of these are
found in nature but many, if not all, can be produced
synthetically. Psilocybin and psilocyn
(4-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine) are obtained from
certain mushrooms indigenous to tropical and
subtropical regions of South America, Mexico, and the
United States. As pure chemicals at doses of 10 to 20
mg, these hallucinogens produce muscle relaxation,
dilation of pupils, vivid visual and auditory distortions,
and emotional disturbances. However, the effects
produced by consuming preparations of dried or brewed
mushrooms are far less predictable and largely depend
on the particular mushrooms used and the age and
preservation of the extract. There are many species of
"magic" mushrooms that contain varying amounts of
these tryptamines, as well as uncertain amounts of
other chemicals. As a consequence, the hallucinogenic
activity, as well as the extent of toxicity produced by
various plant samples, are often unknown
