Resumen
Antecedentes: Las drogas de diseño del tipo anfetamina, o de benzil y fenil piperazina, o del tipo pirrolidinfenona, producen sentimientos de euforia, energía y deseos de socializar, por eso son conocidas como rave drugs o drogas de club. A pesar de que los consumidores aducen que son drogas seguras, estudios experimentales en biomodelos y de tipo epidemiológico en humanos, indican riesgos potenciales para quien las usa. Materiales y Métodos: El presente artículo de revisión analiza, cualitativamente, la literatura científica disponible en las bases de datos Science Direct y PUBMED, relacionada con el metabolismo de estas drogas recreacionales y sus implicaciones en salud. Resultados: Se obtuvo información pertinente relacionada con los objetivos propuestos, por lo cual puede clasificarse en 2 secciones a saber: metabolismo de las drogas de diseño e implicaciones clínicas de su consumo. Conclusión: Las vías metabólicas que involucran isoenzimas P450 son responsables de la degradación hepática de las drogas de diseño. Existen riesgos potenciales para quien las consume, entre los que se encuentran el síndrome de serotonina, hepatotoxicidad, neurotoxicidad y psicopatología.
