What is the goal of psychedelic-assisted therapy research trials at InnerMost?
At InnerMost, our clinical trials are designed to carefully explore how psychedelic medicines can be used safely and effectively to support healing. We strive to create a compassionate, supportive environment for participants, while also contributing valuable insights to the growing field of psychedelic research.
Does it cost anything to participate in a research trial, and will I be compensated for participating?
Some sponsor trials will compensate you for your participation, which might cover travel and lodging, while others are voluntary. For trials without a budget, participating is of no cost to you beyond travel and lodging.
Can I continue taking my psychiatric medications while participating in a research trial?
It depends—some research trials may require that you taper off your medications under the guidance of a physician. In other trials, you may be able to continue your prescribed treatment throughout the study.
What support is provided during and after dosing?
Every session takes place in a safe, supportive environment with trained professionals present. You’ll also have preparatory sessions before dosing and integration sessions afterward to help process and apply your experiences.
Will I definitely receive psychedelic medicine during research trials at InnerMost?
Not necessarily. Some studies are randomized and double-blind, which means participants may receive either a psychedelic compound or placebo.
Can I withdraw from the research trial if I no longer want to participate?
If at any point you decide a trial isn’t right for you, you’re welcome to stop. Your well-being is our priority, and we’ll be here to help navigate the withdrawal process if needed.
