Over the past several weeks, a series of misleading news reports have suggested that both MDMA and psilocybin could soon be made ‘legal.’ This reporting aims to dramatize news of an application made by Mind Medicine Australia (MMA) seeking to make Schedule 8 entries for MDMA and psilocybin, which currently only have entries as Schedule 9 drugs
The rationale behind MMA’s application for rescheduling of MDMA and psilocybin was it would allow for greater capacity for medical professionals to prescribe these drugs for the treatment of mental health conditions such as depression and PTSD.
