A systematic review of the effects of novel psychoactive substances ‘legal highs’ on people with severe mental illness

This systematic review (mostly case reports) found scarce but consistent evidence that novel psychoactive substances can precipitate new or worsening psychotic symptoms, marked behavioural disturbance (agitation, aggression) and physiological changes in people with severe mental illness. Findings are limited by the reliance on case studies, and the authors call for clinicians to ask directly about NPS use and for further research into long‑term mental and physical effects.
