Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic StudiesCompletedPhase 2Started Feb 1, 200812 enrolledSwitzerlandNCT00920387

Abstract

This study will find out whether psychotherapy combined with lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) is safe and is helpful in people who are anxious because they have a potentially fatal disease. The study will measure anxiety and quality of life before and after people have two sessions with either full or active placebo dose of LSD. They expect LSD-assisted psychotherapy to reduce anxiety and improve quality of life.
