Bipartisan Lawmakers Urge FDA to Approve MDMA for PTSD Despite Concerns
Aug 5, 2024, 04:56 PM
Studies evaluating an ecstasy-based drug, MDMA, for FDA approval have been criticized for missing serious side effects, including worsened post-traumatic stress, suicidal thoughts, and bias among subjects. Despite these concerns, a bipartisan coalition of 80 senators and representatives has urged the FDA to consider approving MDMA-assisted therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Some subjects of the FDA's trial reported that the treatment was the only thing that helped them feel normal, although it was illegal post-study. Advocates argue that MDMA-AT has a proven efficacy for treating PTSD and could save Veterans' lives.
