The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs has initiated a clinical trial to assess the safety and effectiveness of psilocybin in treating major depression, including cases concurrent with PTSD, that has not responded to other treatments. The randomized trial will compare two psilocybin dosage levels and evaluate depression levels, side effects, and patient-reported outcomes. This trial is part of VA's 20 active clinical trials exploring psychedelic therapies for mental health conditions, conducted under strict safety protocols and federal guidelines.
