EXCLUSIVE: Sewage sludge fertiliser sold to farmers by water companies contains a banned ‘forever chemical’ at levels in excess of those considered safe in emerging science, an ENDS investigation has revealed.
The problem is that even with drugs that are proven safe, and almost certainly effective, often that proof doesn’t meet the arbitrary standards of regulators. NICE refusing to approve ketamine therapy for depression is one I’m specifically aware of, as I suffer from treatment resistant depression.
Was it ketamine or was it MDMA? I know that the studies for MDMA were flawed and bit and did not meet muster.
Is there an issue with bias? Always. We are dealing with humans. But I know that if the pharm companies get to have them all approved we’d be in trouble.
If you are in Most states, you can have treatment with ketamine. ~190 a month, last I checked.
