NCT ID NCT07189988
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This pilot study follows 20 adults in Oregon who are using psilocybin (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms) to help with alcohol use disorder. Researchers are observing how often participants have heavy drinking days before and after psilocybin sessions. The study does not provide treatment itself—it simply watches what happens in a real-world clinic setting.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward psilocybin as a helpful tool for reducing heavy drinking in people with alcohol use disorder.
