The Status Quo Just changed

People suffering from addiction are frustrated with the status quo and are desperately looking for better options. When millions of people around the globe watched Netflix’s ‘How To Change Your Mind’, their world shifted on its axis when they realized a better option (psychedelic-assisted therapy) is not only being researched, but is actually available right now! 

Awakn featured on the show as the only psychedelic company currently providing psychedelic-assisted therapy. So many people came to this realization when the docuseries launched, our website servers crashed from the volume of traffic.

This surge in patient demand accelerated the launch of our Licensing Partnership business and we have now announced the first two License Partners with many more to come. 

All this is happening inside a rapidly changing ecosystem to make many forms of psychedelic-assisted therapy legal and accessible, as evidenced by the Biden administration planning for the anticipated FDA approval of both MDMA and psilocybin in less than two years. 

What is your preference: wait 2 years to begin the process of integrating into your practice what patients want now, or join the movement today to be ahead of the curve for what's coming in less than two years?

Awakn’s Licensing Partnerships

Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) is a devastatingly serious condition which affects 5% of the global population, that’s approximately 390 million people and it results in more than 5% of all deaths globally.

Treatment rates are very low, in the U.S. it is believed that only 8% of those suffering from AUD seek out treatment and from those few that do, 75% of them will relapse within the first 12 months. The pandemic has resulted in more people resorting to alcohol and the rates of addiction are increasing at alarming rates.

Treating addiction effectively is very difficult and there has been very little innovation in the last number of decades. We understand that addiction treatment providers need to be equipped with new effective tools to treat their clients the way they want to.

Awakn has answered this call with a new effective treatment that has been proven to work.

2

It is the only therapeutics package for ketamine and therapy validated in a clinical trial and has been proven to be more effective than any other addiction treatment currently available.

3

Result from the clinical trial show; 86% abstinence at 6 months post treatment. In context, the average rate of abstinence prior to the treatment was 2%.

4

The protocol has been designed to be delivered by low intensity therapists.

It can be delivered at a higher margin and with greater efficacy.
