Trump pushes fast-track reviews for psychedelic medicines
TL;DR Summary
President Trump issued an executive order directing the FDA (and DEA) to fast-track reviews for psychedelic drugs and to establish a pathway for access to investigational psychedelics under FDA review, including granting priority review vouchers for three serotonin 2A agonists. Companies like Compass Pathways welcomed the move as a step toward faster, regulated access to psychedelic medicines for mental illness while maintaining scientific rigor.
