Abstrakt: A recent study conducted at Dow University of Health Sciences in Karachi, Pakistan, explores the use of MDMA-assisted psychotherapy in the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The study highlights that while there are currently approved treatment options for PTSD, many patients do not respond to traditional therapies. The research suggests that MDMA-assisted psychotherapy has shown promise in reducing PTSD symptoms, even in treatment-resistant cases, by increasing certain neurohormones and modulating brain activity. However, further research is needed to determine the overall benefits and integration of MDMA-assisted psychotherapy into existing treatment options for PTSD. [Extracted from the article]
