Abstract
Coadministration of psilocybin and buprenorphine was safely tolerated and did not demonstrate contraindicating effects vis-à-vis effectiveness of buprenorphine or the subjective effects of psilocybin. Challenges in feasibility led to modifications in the sample population and eligibility criteria and strategies to improve accessibility, minimize burden, and enhance overall generalizability.clinicaltrials.gov ID: NCT05242029.
