Psychedelics to Treat Addiction: Dr. Dario Dornbierer, Reconnect Labs

X-Health.show - meet the future of healthcare

How do you design a psychedelic trip that is predictable and effective?

That frees people from cocaine addiction

Without the common current side effects of psychedelics

Just imagine being free from an addiction in a few hours

This is what researchers and my guest today are trying to accomplish

You’ll hear

• how did psychedelic studies continue in Switzerland while banned elsewhere
• the differences between various psychedelics
• what is ayahuasca and its DMT ingredient
• how do magic mushrooms and psilocybin work
• LSD
• ecstasy
• and the potential of psychedelics in treating depression, anxiety, and cocaine addiction

My guest, Dr. Dario Dornbierer, is the Chief Scientific Officer and a co-founder of Reconnect Labs. A psychopharmacologist who’s done his post-doc research in psychedelics – drug development in mental health.

Reconnect Labs is a clinical-stage Swiss startup, a spin-off of the University of Zurich, developing psychedelic medicines for sleep, anxiety, and substance use disorders. This opens a new era in psychiatry: precision therapeutics with both immediate and long-term symptom alleviation.

Hit play to step into a sleep lab, where it all started.
