  • Inclusion of People of Color in Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy

    Inclusion of People of Color in Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy

    Michaels et al. BMC Psychiatry (2018) 18:245 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12888-018-1824-6 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Inclusion of people of color in psychedelic- assisted psychotherapy: a review of the literature Timothy I. Michaels1* , Jennifer Purdon1,2, Alexis Collins1 and Monnica T. Williams1,2 Abstract Background: Despite renewed interest in studying the safety and efficacy of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy for the treatment of psychological disorders, the enrollment of racially diverse participants and the unique presentation of psychopathology in this population has not been a focus of this potentially ground-breaking area of research. In 1993, the United States National Institutes of Health issued a mandate that funded research must include participants of color and proposals must include methods for achieving diverse samples. Methods: A methodological search of psychedelic studies from 1993 to 2017 was conducted to evaluate ethnoracial differences in inclusion and effective methods of recruiting peopple of color. Results: Of the 18 studies that met full criteria (n = 282 participants), 82.3% of the participants were non-Hispanic White, 2.5% were African-American, 2.1% were of Latino origin, 1.8% were of Asian origin, 4.6% were of indigenous origin, 4.6% were of mixed race, 1.8% identified their race as “other,” and the ethnicity of 8.2% of participants was unknown. There were no significant differences in recruitment methodologies between those studies that had higher (> 20%) rates of inclusion. Conclusions: As minorities are greatly underrepresented in psychedelic medicine studies, reported treatment outcomes may not generalize to all ethnic and cultural groups.

    Substance Abuse: the Pharmacy Educator’S Role in Prevention and Recovery

    Substance Abuse: The Pharmacy Educator’s Role in Prevention and Recovery Curricular Guidelines for Pharmacy: Substance Abuse and Addictive Disease i Curricular Guidelines for Pharmacy: Substance Abuse and Addictive Disease1,2 BACKGROUND OF THE CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT PROJECT In 1988, the AACP Special Interest Group (SIG) on Pharmacy Student and Faculty Impairment (renamed Substance Abuse Education and Assistance) undertook the development of curricular guidelines for colleges/schools of pharmacy to facilitate the growth of educational opportunities for student pharmacists. These Curricular Guidelines for Pharmacy Education: Substance Abuse and Addictive Disease were published in 1991 (AJPE. 55:311-16. Winter 1991.) One of the charges of the Special Committee on Substance Abuse and Pharmacy Education was to review and revise the 1991 curricular guidelines. Overall, the didactic and experiential components in the suggested curriculum should prepare the student pharmacist to competently problem-solve issues concerning alcohol and other drug abuse and addictive diseases affecting patients, families, colleagues, themselves, and society. The guidelines provide ten educational goals, while describing four major content areas including: psychosocial aspects of alcohol and other drug use; pharmacology and toxicology of abused substances; identification, intervention, and treatment of people with addictive diseases; and legal/ethical issues. The required curriculum suggested by these guidelines addresses the 1 These guidelines were revised by the AACP Special Committee on Substance Abuse and Pharmacy Education. Members drafting the revised guidelines were Edward M. DeSimone (Creighton University), Julie C. Kissack (Harding University), David M. Scott (North Dakota State University), and Brandon J.

Drugs (including alcohol) are substances that affect the way the body functions when they are used. If a drug is illegal it means that it is forbidden by law. Different drugs have different effects on people, and different factors can impact on the experience of drug use. These include: ● the drug itself (e.g. the pharmacological properties of the substance being taken); ● the individual taking the drug (e.g. age, sex, physical and mental health of a person); ● the environment (the setting where the drug is being used, which can be legal, cultural or situational). Drinking two or three beers might be relatively low risk for a healthy adult but the risk of harm increases if they drink on an empty stomach, try to drive a car after drinking, or have a pre- existing health problem.

    Ecstasy Or Molly, Is a Synthetic Psychoactive Drug

    DRUG ENFORCEMENT ADMINISTRATION THE FACTS ABOUT MDMA Ecstasy &Molly DEA PHOTO What is it? MDMA, (3,4-methylenedioxy- methamphetamine), known as Ecstasy or Molly, is a synthetic psychoactive drug. Ecstasy is the pill form of MDMA. Molly is the slang for “molecular” that refers to the powder or crystal form of MDMA. Molly is often mixed with other drugs and substances and is not pure MDMA or safe to use. How is it used? MDMA or Ecstasy is taken orally in pill or tablet form. These pills can be in different colors with images on them. Molly is taken in a gel capsule or snorted. What does MDMA do to the body and mind? • As a stimulant drug, it increases heart rate and blood pressure. Users may experience muscle tension, involuntary teeth clenching, nausea, blurred vision, faintness, chills, or sweating • It produces feelings of increased energy, euphoria, emotional warmth, empathy, and distortions in sensory and time perception. • Feelings of sadness, anxiety, depression and memory difficulties are other effects. • It can seriously deplete serotonin levels in the brain, causing confusion and sleep problems. Did you know? • DEA has labeled MDMA as a Schedule I drug, meaning its abuse potential is high and it has no approved medical use. It is illegal in the U.S. • In high doses, MDMA can affect the body’s ability to regulate temperature, which can lead to serious health complications and possible death. • Teens are using less MDMA. Teens decreased their past year use of MDMA from 1.9% in 2010 to 1.2% of teens using 2012.

    References to Argentina Part 1 RECENT STATISTICS AND TREND ANALYSIS OF ILLICIT DRUG MARKETS A. EXTENT OF ILLICIT DRUG USE AND HEALTH CONSEQUENCES The Americas (pages 12 to 14 WDR 13) In the Americas, a high prevalence of most illicit drugs, essentially driven by estimates in North America, was observed, with the prevalence of cannabis (7.9 per cent) and cocaine (1.3 per cent) being particularly high in the region. South America, Central America and the Caribbean The annual prevalence of cocaine use in South America (1.3 per cent of the adult population) is comparable to levels in North America, while it remains much higher than the global average in Central America (0.6 per cent) and the Caribbean (0.7 per cent). Cocaine use has increased significantly in Brazil, Costa Rica and, to lesser extent, Peru while no change in its use was reported in Argentina. The use of cannabis in South America is higher (5.7 per cent) than the global average, but lower in Central America and Caribbean (2.6 and 2.8 per cent respectively). In South America and Central America the use of opioids (0.3 and 0.2 per cent, respectively) and Ecstasy (0.1 per cent each) also remain well below the global average. While opiates use remains low, countries such as Colombia report that heroin use is becoming increasingly common among certain age groups and socio-economic classes.30 Part 2 NEW PSYCHOACTIVE SUBSTANCES C.
