Experimental: Psilocybin
25 mg psilocybin

Drug: Psilocybin
Five oral capsules containing 5 mg of psilocybin each |
- Heart rate [ Time Frame: From pre-dose through one-hour intervals post-dose until heart rate has returned to within 20% of the pre-dose measure, or after a minimum of 6 hours. ]Beats per minute measured with blood pressure monitor.
- Blood pressure [ Time Frame: From pre-dose through one-hour intervals post-dose until blood pressure has returned to within 20% of the pre-dose measure, or after a minimum of 6 hours ]Systolic and diastolic blood pressure measured with blood pressure monitor.
- Self-reported drug effects [ Time Frame: From pre-dose through one-hour intervals post-dose over a 6-bour period. ]Average and peak subjective ratings of drug effects associated with mood measured using visual analogue scales (VAS; 1-100 mm).
- Self-reported cocaine craving [ Time Frame: 48 hours and 10, 50, and 90 days after psilocybin administration. ]Average subjective ratings of cocaine craving measured using Cocaine Craving Questionnaire-Brief. Each item on the 10 item questionnaire is scored on a scale ranging from 1 for "Strongly Disagree" to 7 for "Strongly Agree," with higher scores indicating greater cocaine craving.
- Self-reported mood ratings [ Time Frame: 48 hours and 10, 50, and 90 days after psilocybin administration. ]Average subjective ratings of Depression, Anxiety, Stress measured using Depression, Anxiety and Stress scales of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21). Each scale consists of 7 items rated from 0 to 3, with higher scores indicating greater Depression, Anxiety, or Stress.
