We are seeking military Veterans with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) to participate in a research study looking at the effects of psilocybin and MDMA, two substances often called "psychedelics". Separately, both substances have shown some early signs of safety and efficacy in the treatment of PTSD. Our study will observe whether administration of both substances, combined with psychological support, improves posttraumatic stress symptoms and quality of life.
Study Details
Participants must complete screening procedures, including surveys, psychological assessments, and physicals.
Participants will be compensated for study participation.
Participants will receive two doses of psilocybin and MDMA under supervision.
Participants will receive regular psychological support for about two months.
Study Requirements:
