Psychedelic drug MDMA eases PTSD symptoms in a study that paves the way for possible US approval

A study has found that the psychedelic drug MDMA, combined with talk therapy, can reduce symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder.

I would really like to see the results of an independent study, but it does seem promising.

My question is twofold if it is approved:
1) are EMS protocols going to have to change to include a psychological aspect when dealing with possible OD cases?

2) how are companies going to incorporate positive drug screening results into their hiring procedures if it is being used to treat PTSD?

Half of the placebo group was cured? That would be an interesting paper to read...

Good question for a lawyer...MDMA is a Schedule 1 drug.
