Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Double-Blind Trial of Psilocybin-Assisted Treatment of Alcohol Dependence (NCT NCT02061293)

NCT ID: NCT02061293

Last Updated: 2022-11-08

Results Overview

The Timeline Follow-back (TLFB) method is used to calculate the percent of heavy drinking days. The TLFB is a method for assessing the number of drinks of alcohol on a daily basis over the previous 30 days. For each day in the recall period, the participant indicates the number of drinks of alcohol they consumed. The TLFB provides a calendar prompt and number of other memory aids (e.g., holidays, payday, and other personally relevant dates) to facilitate accurate recall of drug use during the target period. Heavy drinking is defined as ≥4 drinks per day for women and ≥5 drinks per day for men.
