A transient recurrence of a drug's effects after it has left one's system is known as a flashback. While the frequency and causes of flashbacks are debated, they most commonly occur after the ingestion of hallucinogens, such as LSD and psilocybin. A prolonged, continuous presence of a hallucinogen's effects (mainly visual) is called HPPD, Hallucinogen Persisting Perception Disorder. Unlike with flashbacks, those suffering from HPPD experience constant perceptual disturbances.
