Psychedelic Medicine’s Biggest Blind Spots | Richard Louis Miller
""One is big pharma does not reveal all of their adverse effects. They hide a lot of their adverse effects in the same way that the presidents of the major cigarette companies in the United States got up before Congress.""
Clinical psychologist Richard Louis Miller argues that psychedelic medicine needs to be more transparent about harms, because, he claims, pharmaceutical companies have a history of downplaying adverse effects. He cites historic examples including tobacco executives’ testimony to Congress and later claims about opioid addiction, framing these as warnings for how public trust can be undermined.
