    14 Which of the following drugs is LEAST likely to cause HPPD?

    LSD
    ecstasy
    psilocybin
    heroin

    From Quiz: Hallucinogen Persisting Perception Disorder


    Answer: heroin

    HPPD is, obviously, caused by hallucinogens. The category of hallucinogens can be further
    broken down into three subcategories: psychedelics, dissociatives, and deliriants. Lysergic acid
    diethylamide (LSD, or "acid"), methylenedioxy-methylamphetamine (MDMA, or "ecstasy"), and
    psilocybin ("magic mushrooms") all belong to the psychedelic subcategory, which is the
    subcategory of hallucinogens most likely to cause HPPD, though some dissociatives do as
    well, such as phencyclidine (PCP, or "angel dust") and ketamine.

    Heroin is classified as an opiate or opioid. Opioids are analgesics (painkillers) rather than
    hallucinogens, though heroin can display some hallucinogenic properties, especially when cut
    with cocaine or methamphetamine. On its own, however, heroin is highly unlikely to cause
    HPPD.
