• Current enrollment in any investigational drug or device study or participation in such within 30 days of Screening (V1)
• Any other clinically significant cardiovascular, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal, or any other major concurrent illness that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may interfere with the interpretation of the study results or constitute a health risk for the participant if they take part in the study
• Concurrent or recent chemotherapy or radiation therapy that impairs general level of physical functioning

• The use of concomitant medications that prolong the QT/QTc interval
• Abnormal and clinically significant results on the physical examination, vital signs, ECG, or laboratory tests at Screening (V1) that in the Investigator's opinion may constitute a risk for an individual who is exposed to psilocybin. This includes a value of < 50,000 platelets per cubic millimeter of blood, liver function tests three times the upper limit of normal, and creatine two times above the normal range. Clinically significant abnormal electrolytes or low hemoglobin (< 8 g/L) should be corrected and rechecked prior to enrollment
