In March 2022, mental health charity Mind Medicine Australia applied to the TGA to change the psilocybin from a prohibited schedule 9 drug to a controlled schedule 8 drug.
Mind Medication Australia co-founder Peter Hunt told ABC Hobart breakfast the charity's application had 12,000 submissions from doctors and the public. From July first, when the changes come into affect, psychiatrists will be able to prescribe psilocybin for treatment-resistant depression and methylenedioxymethamphetamine for post-traumatic stress disorder.

TGA approves magic mushrooms but goes the next step in banning panadol.
Given the TGA's record on rubber stamping dangerous big pharma experiments, they shouldn't ever have the power to tell anyone what they are allowed to use from nature.
Oh grate say goodbye to natural shrooms, they will get copy written and all shrooms will be destroyed in nature on mass, because it's now a protected pharama drug, I hop they grow them natural I don't trust lab pcilocibin. It'll be like that horrid k2 fake weed.
A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves auspol
Keep big Pharma away & leave doctors to be doctors!
This is great news. Natural is best. However the way the TGA lied to everyone that a Corona shot that isn’t even fully approved would stop the spread was truly disgusting especially when no such studies were even done.

‘Long term monitoring’ a requirement for TGA approved psychedelic drug useOne of the conditions for TGA approved use of psychedelic drugs to treat mental health is “long term monitoring”, says Brain & Mind Centre Co-Director Professor Ian Hickie. “Whoever gets these substances, the doctor who prescribes, or the clinic who provides it, will be responsible for reporting to the TGA what actually happens,” Mr Hickie told Sky News Australia. “That again is a very welcome development. “We simply need to know – not just is there short term benefit, but is there any long term harm.” Ooooh. Goodie. Need long term monitoring for the use of psychedelics, but for a gene therapy experimental jab no long term monitoring is necessary. clownworld Geez they they don’t need to do many trails of these drugs just watch Parliament Question Time in particular the Greens 😳 If the TGA approved it I would be cautious about using it if I were you.

TGA approved psychedelics for mental health may stop ‘backyard prescribing’Brain & Mind Centre Co-Director Professor Ian Hickie says one of the reasons the TGA has approved the use of select psychedelics for mental health treatment is to “stop backyard prescribing”. “That is a very welcome development,” Mr Hickie said. “Moving from simply making these substances illegal, to making them legal but only under very controlled circumstances, and I think that’s a smart way for the TGA to go.” makes no sense So the TGA is playing catch up. Yes people are quit well a where on the science. Treatment by micro dosing psychedelics for mental health works. Why did Sky News cover up Robodebt? RobodebtRC

TGA’s approval of MDMA and Psilocybin for medical use is a result of ‘renewed interest’Neuromedicines Discovery Centre Deputy Director Professor Chris Langmead says the Therapeutics Goods Administration’s recent approval for MDMA and Psilocybin is a result of a “renewed interest”. “There has been a renewed interest in looking at substances such as MDMA and psilocybin for many years - in fact, much work was done in the 1960s,” he told Sky News Australia. “But it really is only in the last two or three or four years that there’s been significantly large clinical trials that have studied the effectiveness of MDMA when used combined with psychotherapy for the treatment of PTSD. “Or psilocybin when combined with psychotherapy for the treatment of very difficult to treat depression. “It is the large amount of emerging clinical data around the safety and the effectiveness of these medicines when used under very strictly controlled clinical conditions that has led the TGA to make this decision.” Renewed interest? Nah. Renewed honesty about its benefits. Just reality winning for once. The magic mushroom! That brings back memories. We the Australian people have no faith in the TGA, they used the Australian people in an experimental Gene therapy that is destroying lives.. It’s a matter of time and Liability for Pfizer, TGA and other corporations will cease, don’t get too comfortable..

MDMA and psilocybin recently approved for medical useThe Therapeutic Goods Administration recently approved MDMA and psilocybin to treat mental illnesses. “For the treatment of PTSD in the case of MDMA, and for the treatment of treatment-resistant depression in the case of psilocybin, these medicines will be reclassified as schedule eight, which means they are controlled drugs,” Neuromedicines Discovery Centre Deputy Director Professor Chris Langmead said. “They’ll be able to be used in a clinical context in the same way, for example, that ketamine or other opioid analgesics are used in an operating theatre,” he told Sky News Australia. Progress at last for PTSD! Proven to be effective, non toxic and non addictive, unlike most pharma drugs. Good move. Now actual clinical trials can be conducted without fear of being locked-up.
