Psilocybin and , which is the active ingredient of magic mushrooms, are promising drugs for treating mental disorders. Psychoedelic-assisted therapy clinics are becoming more focused on the patient experience, and not just the use of or other psychedelic drugs therapies. The therapy is being seen as a part of the overall experience and not the final word. Experts believe that this new direction, which combines digital mental health therapy and psychedelics with other mind-altering substances, can lower the cost of care and improve patient outcomes and protocols.
A report in Axios.com discussed the recent industry conference focusing on the largest psychedelic medicine conference in the U.S., featured speakers ranging from elite psychopharmacologists to the former boxing champion Mike Tyson, who has reinvented himself as an adviser on mental health. Axios stated that the conference’s size is an indication that psychedelic medicine, long considered a fringe science, is now mainstream. He says that there are many promising technologies right now, combining psychedelic treatment with AI and wearables. Wearable devices could provide “digital Phenotyping”, as Cappello Juan Pablo Cappello, CEO and co-founder at NUE Life Health, calls it. This is based on data points such as sleep and activity and will allow for more detailed information than the self-reporting that is used in mental health therapy. According to another insider, “We can assess patients at the beginning, to determine their baseline statistics.” Then, after each experience, we can evaluate them again and see how they are doing. We can also tweak further treatment as necessary. Another source claims that we can lower the cost of ketamine treatment which can run several hundred dollars per infusion.

Axios added: “Studies are increasing evidence that psychedelics such as LSD and Psilocybin, and mind-altering drugs such as MDMA and ketamine can be combined with psychotherapy to combat treatment-resistant anxiety and depression. The FDA approved Esketamine in 2019, a chemical cousin to ketamine. Although it is not known how these drugs work, one theory suggests that they encourage neuroplasticity in anxious or severely depressed brains. The bottom Line: Although psychoedelic therapy is still new, combining it with AI and telemedicine could make it more accessible and provide more detailed data about its effectiveness.

This application addresses further precision in shelf stabilization and delivery control of psilocin (psilocybin’s active metabolite), which are crucial for medical use.
Orally administered psilocybin can have a wide range of onset times for patients, making it difficult to standardize protocols or scale treatments. This is why Mydecine has developed a dermal route to administer psilocin. Patent pending permeation enhanced drug by Mydecine provides greater control over the drug and may eliminate undesirable properties such as nausea.
