Description

In the first ever phase 3 trial of MDMA for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), it was reported that 67% of the group who received MDMA, compared to 32% of the group who received placebo, no longer qualified for a PTSD diagnosis after three MDMA treatment sessions. Now, a second Phase 3 clinical trial is nearing completion with a possibility of MDMA becoming an available treatment in the near future. The aim of this recording is to prepare clinicians with an understanding of MDMA-assisted psychotherapy for PTSD in light of this eventuality.
