NCT ID NCT05370911

Summary

This study is testing whether taking two doses of psilocybin, the active compound in 'magic mushrooms,' can reduce symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). It involves 30 adults with moderate-to-severe OCD who haven't gotten better with standard medications or therapy. Participants are randomly assigned to receive the treatment right away or after a waiting period, and researchers measure changes in their OCD symptoms and related psychological factors.
