	Mescaline: A Psychedelic Catalyst for Healing
		The hallucinogenic effects of the mescaline is necessary for the healing ceremony to function properly.
		Mescaline is unique among drugs in that its main action is a stimulant of the visual and visuo-psychic areas of the cortex (Kluver, 65).
		The use of the mescaline in the ritual to achieve this positive result is a welcome contrast to many current negative attitudes towards psychedelic experiences.

	Mescaline Information from Drugs.com
		Mescaline is a hallucinogen obtained from the a small, spineless cactus Peyote (Lophophora williamsi).
		While mescaline produced rich visual hallucinations which were important to the native peyote cults, the full spectrum of effects served as a chemically induced model of mental illness.
		Mescaline is used primarily as a recreational drug and is also used to supplement various types of meditation and psychedelic therapy.

	Mescaline : D M Turner
		Mescaline belongs to a family of compounds known as phenethylamines, making it quite distinct from the other major psychedelics which belong to the indole family.
		Mescaline was the first psychedelic compound to be extracted and isolated, which occurred in 1896.
		The small amount of mescaline that is produced for the psychedelic underground typically fetches from $100 to $200 per gram, ($50 to $100 per dose), clearly too expensive to become a popular street drug.

	Erowid Mescaline Vault : Dosage
		Mescaline sulfate is 11% heavier than mescaline hydrochloride, meaning it takes 11% _more_ mescaline sulfate by weight to get the same effects as a certain amount of mescaline hydrochloride.
		Freebase mescaline is 15% lighter than mescaline hydrochloride (and 25% lighter than mescaline sulfate), thereby requiring 15% _less_ material by weight for the same dose as mescaline hydrochloride.
		Mescaline is found in many types of cacti, most prominently in peyote (lophophora williamsii), San Pedro (trichocerus pachanoi) and the Peruvian Torch (trichocerus peruvianus).

	Psilocybin - Molecule of the Month
		Mescaline is made when the caps, or buttons, are dried and eaten, brewed into tea or powdered into capsules.
		Psilocybin and mescaline are psycho-active because they closely resemble the structures of neuro-transmitters that convey impulses from one nerve to another, especially in the brain.
		Mescaline does not have the indole ring, but as shown in red in the diagram above, its structure can be represented so as to suggest its relation to the ring.

	Introduction to Chemical Dependency
		Mescaline is the major psychoactive ingredient of the peyote cactus and is responsible for the mind-manifesting, LSD-like effects of the mescaline buttons.
		In doses of 200-500 mg (the equivalent of 20 mescal buttons), mescaline causes increased heart rate, increased body temperature, increased blood pressure, and dilated pupils as well as a slowing down of both coordination and reflexes, and a clouding of one's concentration.
		Mescaline may now be produced in the laboratory and is available in capsules, tablets, and liquid form.

	Mescaline, An Overview
		The analysis revealed that mescaline was present and that the aged buttons were therefore indeed derived from the peyote cactus, more formally known as the species Lophophora williamsii and known to be one of the world's longest employed entheogens, used by both the Aztec's of old and by various tribes of Amerindians to this day.
		The presence of the alkaloid mescaline within the peyote cactus is thus notable for its longevity and ability to remain stable and potentially psychoactive over immense periods of time.
		And yet a look at some of the descriptions of mescaline intoxication outlined in Kluver's book makes a clear case that peyote is indeed worthy of investigation and that these early experiments in psychedelic or entheogenic phenomenology were indeed full of promise in the then relatively young field of psychology.

	Peyote \| Mescaline: History Lessons
		As one of the first hallucinogens to be reproduced in the lab, mescaline became the center of scientific interest in the early 1900s and was used in the experimental treatment of alcoholism, mental illness, and other disorders.
		Peyote and mescaline are best known for their unique hallucinogenic properties, which many users report as less disorienting -- and hence more manageable -- than LSD and other synthetic psychedelics.
		While mescaline is about 4,000 times less potent -- microgram for microgram -- than LSD, both drugs work in similar ways, by temporarily tilting the distribution and action in the brain of such neurotransmitters as dopamine and serotonin, although their exact mechanism of action remains unclear.

		The active dose of mescaline, 0.2 to 0.5 g, is comparable to 0.00002 to 0.0001 g of LSD; in other words, LSD is some 5,000 to 10,000 times more active than mescaline.

	Mescaline
		EXTENSIONS AND COMMENTARY: Mescaline is one of the oldest psychedelics known to man. It is the major active component of the small dumpling cactus known as Peyote.
		If free base mescaline is brought into reaction with ethyl formate (to produce the amide, N-formylmescaline) and subsequently reduced (with lithium aluminum hydride) it is converted to the N-methyl homologue.
		Mescaline, at a dose of 420 milligrams, served as the control in these studies.
