Health Canada's
special access program
Health Canada's Special Access Program (SAP) allows for health care professionals to request access to drugs not currently for sale in Canada. This program is used for patients suffering from serious or life-threatening conditions and considered only when conventional therapies have failed, are unsuitable or are unavailable.
On January 5th, 2022, Health Canada amended the SAP to allow access to psilocybin. This amendment also allows manufacturers approved by Health Canada to sell a drug that cannot otherwise be legally sold or distributed in Canada. This program connects health care practitioners and their patients in need with access to safe and regulated psilocybin and other approved substances.

“Psilocybin can offer a means to reconnect to our true nature - our authentic self - and thereby help us find meaning in our lives.”
