I have been writing about PTSD treatments quite a bit in The Frontier Psychiatrists newsletter. One is offered at Fermata, the clinic I co-run in Brooklyn. I recently wrote an article about it. We provide Prism treatment for PTSD at our clinic, much like our colleagues at Homebase in Boston, with Veteran Populations.
Sometimes, you’d rather listen. On that note, here is the podcast version of that article.
Other PTSD-themed writing includes…
The ICU is Traumatic For Everyone
As well as a whole… Saga… on MDMA:
Should MDMA-AT Be Saved, Part III
Saving MDMA (and other psychedelic therapies), Part VI
Saving MDMA VII: This Isn't The First Drug to Have Problems Getting Approved
It’s worth noting I’ll be appearing on a webinar with the Psychedelic Medicine Association to discuss the following…and I’ll include the info from my friend and co-author Dr. Morski, MD, JD:
The FDA Said No, What’s Next? Exploring the Field’s Next Chapter After the MDMA Decision
Register now!
In case you missed the news last week, the FDA officially denied Lykos Therapeutics’ New Drug Application for MDMA-assisted therapy, requesting a new Phase III trial be conducted.
This was a huge blow to the practitioners and patients who were hoping that MDMA would soon be a legal option to address PTSD, a condition where no other therapy has shown the same levels of efficacy as MDMA-assisted therapy.
So you may have questions, like, “When is the next psychedelic medicine likely to be up for FDA approval” and “Which medicine may be the next to reach that stage?” And you may also want an update on what psychedelics (like ketamine) are legally available and how might they serve as a stand-in for the others while we await FDA approvals.
This month we are truly fortunate to have panelists working in various arenas within psychedelic medicine and research to help lead a discussion regarding what psychedelic options are currently available and what’s to come, including:
Which psychedelic medicines are next in the FDA pipeline
When might we see another psychedelic therapy up for FDA approval
How can we utilize the available psychedelic options in the meantime
...and much more!
