Magic mushrooms could be effective treatment for cocaine addiction, study shows

A new clinical trial shows that a single dose of psilocybin could be an effective treatment for cocaine addiction, with participants who received psilocybin being more likely to abstain from cocaine than those who received a placebo. The study was published in Jama Network Open and involved 19 participants who received psilocybin and 17 who received a placebo. Psilocybin is found in magic mushrooms.
