Under Canada’s Controlled Drugs and Substances regulations, Optimi functions as an end-to-end drug researcher and formulator licensed by Health Canada to produce and supply, for clinical research purposes, psychedelic substances such as 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (“MDMA”), natural GMP-grade psilocybin, and high-quality functional mushrooms.

To fulfill its obligations, Optimi is cultivating dried GMP psilocybin-containing biomass and extract into a refined substance, which will be distributed to the Client’s international research sites.
