    A clinical trial examined the effects of psilocybin on patients with major depressive disorder. The study found that a single dose of psilocybin led to significant and immediate reductions in depressive symptoms in patients as measured by the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale, with few negative side effects. However, the small sample size and short follow up period were limitations that require further research.
