“We’re looking forward to supporting the team at Mt.

PharmAla has, and will continue to support its research customers in converting their clinical trial registrations and IRB approvals to the LaNeo MDMA Chemistry, Manufacturing and Control package.
Termination of Contract with CCrest Labs
PharmAla and CCrest Labs have terminated their supply agreement. CCrest was contracted in 2022 to distribute PharmAla’s MDMA to doctors under the Special Access Program. PharmAla will rely on other contracted distributors to complete this work moving forward.
