Single-Dose Synthetic Psilocybin With Psychotherapy for Treatment-Resistant Bipolar Type II Major Depressive EpisodesThis open-label trial (n=15) investigated the safety and efficacy of a single dose of synthetic psilocybin (25 mg) in patients with Bipolar II disorder (BDII) experiencing a current depressive episode. The study found significant improvements in depression (MADRS) scores at three weeks posttreatment, with 12 participants meeting the response criterion and 11 achieving remission. The results suggest the potential efficacy and safety of psilocybin with psychotherapy in treating BDII.
