Ethics and Psychedelics

This study presents a range of ethical issues that arise when considering the use of psychedelic substances within medicine.

Psychedelics are, by their nature, boundary-dissolving, and it is suggested that progress in the Ethics of Psychedelic Medicine is best made within a broader-ranging Psychedelic Bioethics, which encompasses not just medicine, but wider society, including the breadth of cultural containers and settings in which these compounds are used.
