Medical Disclaimer

1. Not medical advice

Articles, guides, dosage references, strain profiles, comparison pages, the Wellness Match tool, the Dosage Calculator, the Set & Setting Builder, and the Readiness Assessment are informational. They are not personalised medical advice. We are not your physician, psychiatrist, or therapist. Always speak with a licensed clinician before making decisions about psychoactive substances.

2. Reporting research, not endorsing use

When we describe clinical trials, study results, or principal-investigator commentary, we are reporting what researchers have published or said. Reporting an effect does not mean we endorse a treatment.

3. Doses cited from studies

Where we cite doses, they are taken from published clinical protocols (for example, “the trial's 25 mg psilocybin arm”). These doses are administered in a controlled clinical environment under medical supervision. They are not dosing recommendations for the reader.

4. Contraindications

Psilocybin interacts with several common medications (SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOIs, lithium, tramadol, among others) and is contraindicated in people with personal or family histories of psychotic disorders, bipolar I, and certain cardiac conditions. The presence of an article about a topic on this site does not mean psilocybin is safe for you specifically. Read our Safety & Harm Reduction guide and speak with a clinician.

5. Legal status

Psilocybin is a Schedule I controlled substance under United States federal law. Some states and cities have created regulated therapeutic programs or reduced enforcement priorities; the federal classification has not changed. The legal landscape varies by jurisdiction and changes over time. Reporting that a program exists in a state is not advice to acquire, possess, or use psilocybin in that state. See our state-by-state legality coverage.

6. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, minors

This site is for adults aged 21 and over. Psilocybin should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding. No content on this site is intended for use by minors.

7. No facilitation

MicroDose IQ does not sell, distribute, broker, or facilitate the purchase of psilocybin or any other controlled substance. Our contact channels exist for editorial questions and educational inquiries only.

8. If you are struggling

If you are in crisis, please call or text 988 (US Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), call 911, or go to your nearest emergency department. If you are abroad, contact your country's crisis line. Your wellbeing is not something we can substitute for from a keyboard.
