Psychedelics get a boost from the White House
President Trump recently signed an executive order which aims to increase access to psychedelic drug treatments. He was joined at the signing by podcaster Joe Rogan, who said he’ ha’d messaged the president about research on the psychedelic ibogaine.
In this week’s STATus Report, host Alex Hogan chats with STAT Washington correspondent Daniel Payne about what the executive order does and doesn’t do. Hogan also looks at why ibogaine, and psychedelic drugs more broadly, are increasingly being taken seriously for stubbornly hard-to-treat conditions like addiction, depression, and PTSD.
