Can I microdose while I’m on antibiotics?

No, it is not wise to microdose if you use antibiotics. Your brain contains many neurons, which communicate through synapses. If you combine medicines and microdosings, the combination can be disrupted by stimuli and damping. This has to do with the neurotransmitters that are active. In addition, your immune system can respond to the use of microdosings. That may mean that you feel warm, sick or poor.

Different combinations will not stand in the way. Always consult a doctor if you think of microdosing, while using antibiotics or other medicines. Moreover, it is a good idea to drink enough water if you want microdos.
 

Can you microdose and drive a car?

Yes, in theory you can drive while you have taken a microdosing. It is not prohibited because the dosage falls within what is legally permitted.
Still, it is important to act responsibly yourself. Do rather not drive if you take a microdosing for the first time. Also don’t drive if you took a little too much for your feeling or if you don’t feel comfortable with your intaking.

Conversely, a microdosing will improve your focus and sight, so it can’t harm to driving. In practice you may even be sharper and so respond better to the situation around you.

Our advice is to always experiment in a safe environment to find out which microdosization suits you best. If it feels too strong, you have taken too much. It is then not wise to go driving or to participate in traffic in a different way.

What is the effect of microdosing on my brain or body?

The microdosings with psilocybin affect your state of mind, focus, creativity and, for example, your problem solving capacity. This is due to strengthening the cognitive functions, thanks to influence on the 5-HT2A receptors in the brain. These are serotonine receptors. This increases the glutamate cell activity in the frontal cortex, allowing your brain to appeal to your memory faster. As a result, you can come up with solutions faster for situations or challenges you experience.

In addition, psilocybin has the ability to reset the control systems of the cognition in the brain. Various studies have shown that psilocybin has effect on the default mode network (DMN). This system is active when the brain is at rest. In the event of increased activity you can experience introspection, daydreaming and spontaneous thought dreams. Moreover, the system plays a role in depression. The DMN is also associated with individual differences in intelligence and efficiency.

The psilocybene can reset your DMN and make you more creative and give you more spiritual insights. Microdosing dampens the DMN. As a result, you unlock more creativity.
