PsyChild. Tracking clinical psychedelics in minors.
PsyChild is a database of clinical research with psychedelics and related compounds in minors.
Its main aim is to provide a growing bibliography on this multidisciplinary field for researchers,
research subjects, patients, guardians, clinicians, critics, and external experts. Some of the provided
records contain accounts of violence, homophobia, and unethical conduct, underscoring the urgent need to
grapple with the difficult history of this field. Due to the cross-pollination of different research
strands in this multidisciplinary field, PsyChild not only includes “classic” psychedelics but also
related compounds such as entactogens like mCPP and αET, deliriants like atropine and scopolamine,
and dissociatives like ketamine and PCP. While PsyChild takes a neutral stance on the question whether
psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy (PAP) should be provided to minors, we do call for evidence-based,
harm-reduction-oriented PAP protocols designed for minors in case research or treatment should be
carried out. Inclusion in the database does not equal endorsement. PsyChild is committed to an
open science approach and welcomes suggestions and submissions.

*1 For multicenter-studies, only the main site is listed.
*2 Due to the large number of available studies with ketamine and ketofol,
references to the use of these compounds have only been included if they
either address symptoms of pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium (PAED),
or if they have been conducted in a psychiatric context.
*3 Studies with cannabinoids have only been included if the ratio of
psychoactive cannabinoids vs. non psychoactive cannabinoids has been higher than 1:20.
*4 As Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD) is not clearly defined,
it is labeled as MDD in the indication columns.
