Acute effects of 2C-B compared to MDMA and psilocybin in healthy subjects
Zusammenfassung der Studie
We investigate the altered states of consciousness induced by 2C-B, MDMA, and psilocybin. As part of the study, you will receive 3 x 2C-B at different dosages (10 mg, 20 mg, and 30 mg), 1 x MDMA (125 mg), 1 x psilocybin (25 mg), and 1 x placebo, with at least 10 days between each. Neither you nor your caregiver will know when you will receive which substance or placebo (“double-blind”). The order of substance administration is randomly determined. Thus, all participants receive all substances, just in a different order. During the study days, we will assess the subjective effect on the psyche using various questionnaires. Additionally, we will repeatedly measure pulse, blood pressure, and body temperature. To investigate the concentration profile of the substances in the blood, blood samples will be taken from you at various time points after substance administration. For this purpose, an intravenous catheter will be placed in your forearm, preferably in the elbow crease, each morning of the study days. The measurements (consisting of blood sampling, blood pressure and pulse measurements, as well as questionnaires) will be conducted in the first half of the day every half hour and in the second half of the day every hour. Between measurements, you will have time to read or listen to music. Throughout the study day, you will be supported by a trained and competent study team member who has extensive experience in handling psychoactive substances.
