World-First Trial Shows MDMA Could Be Used to Treat Alcoholism



The results show that MDMA-assisted therapy is potentially more effective than any current treatments used to treat alcoholism.

After many years of stagnated research, many recreational drugs are being revisited to test their viability in treating PTSD, anxiety, and other serious ailments, and the party drug known as MDMA, or 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine, is one of them.

The research, published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology, reports on a landmark clinical trial, showing the untapped potential for MDMA-assisted psychotherapy in treating those with alcohol addiction. While small, it is the first to test MDMA therapy as a treatment for addiction.
