Abstract

Despite their legality, alcohol and tobacco both have a well-documented potential for misuse and elevate users' likelihood for disease. Dependence on alcohol also contributes to opioid overdoses, which claim 130 lives every day. Although awareness of the opioid epidemic is rising broadly among health care professionals, a majority of Americans still do not receive adequate, FDA-approved medications for their addiction. Effective medications are available for alcohol use disorder and medications for opioid use disorder have validated benefits that justify their use. In recent years, psychedelic compounds have attracted interest among scientists for their potential to alter mood and cognition in beneficial manners. Already, some evidence supports the use of psilocybin in alleviating symptoms of depression and anxiety; psychedelic compounds also have potential as alcohol use disorder treatments and may help reduce symptoms tied to opioid withdrawal. Because substance use disorders can culminate in death, a comprehensive, integrated, public health approach to the treatment of people with substance use disorders is essential.
成瘾精神病学的新兴观点。
尽管酒精和烟草是合法的,但它们都有滥用的可能,并增加使用者患病的可能性。对酒精的依赖也导致阿片类药物过量,每天夺去130人的生命。尽管卫生保健专业人员对阿片类药物流行的认识正在广泛提高,但大多数美国人仍然没有获得足够的、fda批准的药物来治疗他们的成瘾。目前有治疗酒精使用障碍的有效药物,治疗阿片类药物使用障碍的药物已证实有益处,证明使用它们是合理的。近年来,迷幻化合物吸引了科学家们的兴趣,因为它们有可能以有益的方式改变情绪和认知。已经有一些证据支持使用裸盖菇素来缓解抑郁和焦虑的症状;迷幻化合物也有治疗酒精使用障碍的潜力,可能有助于减轻与阿片类药物戒断有关的症状。由于物质使用障碍可能最终导致死亡,因此对物质使用障碍患者采取全面、综合的公共卫生治疗方法至关重要。
