Dispelling the False Claims about MAPS and MDMA-Assisted Therapy
In this episode, Dr. Dave Rabin MD, PhD is joined by Dr. Geoff Bathje PhD who authored an article published on July 19, 2024 in Chacruna entitled: “The Unbelievable Claims of Psymposia about MAPS and MDMA-Assisted Therapy.”Dr. Bathje and Dr. Rabin discuss the recent FDA Advisory Committee vote on MDMA-assisted therapy for PTSD, which surprisingly and wrongfully concluded that the benefits do not outweigh the risks. This conversation deep dives into Dr. Bathje’s report on how Psymposia, what appears to be a group of fringe radicals, negatively biased the FDA committee's vote on June 4 by writing letters with false and misleading claims in an attempt to prevent the clearance of MDMA for PTSD. Why would anyone not only want to prevent clearance of MDMA therapy for Veterans, but see themselves as heroes for doing so? Find out all that and more in this weeks episode of The Psychedelic Report.
