The Psychedelic Practitioner by Psychedelic Alpha is a new publication designed specifically for therapists, clinicians, facilitators, and other professionals working with—or preparing to work with—psychedelic therapies and related treatments. In this Issue, we take a deep dive into the science and practice of psychedelic preparation through interviews, research reviews, and practitioner perspectives.
Through our years of reporting we have covered many of the topics we believe to be important to the present and future of the psychedelics space, broadly defined. However, much of this commentary is scattered across Bulletins, deep dives, special reports and year-end reviews.
The Library provides digestible explainers on salient topics across psychedelic drug development, policy and business: from basic explainers such as “what is psychedelic-assisted therapy?” through to more complex matters such as REMS programs and bifurcated scheduling.
It’s exclusively available to our Pα+ subscribers, with new content added regularly.
Pα+ Library: we introduce some of the key concepts in the matter of bifurcated scheduling; a process by which an approved drug product may be placed in a different schedule to the substance itself. As we discuss in this piece, this could have significant repercussions for psychedelic research, legality, and even taxes.
Pα+ Library: we sketch out what a psychedelic REMS might look like, highlighting how these programs could have an outsized impact on the post-approval delivery and accessibility of these treatments.
