IP: Proprietary Synthesis (Issued) and Method of Use (Pending)
- Issued IP: Synthesis
BetterLife’s synthesis patent for 2-Bromo-LSD eliminates regulatory hurdles. BETR-001 is an unregulated, unscheduled molecule, with no legal barriers to surmount.
- Filed IP (pending): Method of Use
Filing covers treatment of MDD including TRD, migraines, PTSD, and other neuro-psychiatric disorders.

Compound Name: BETR-002
Product Name: Dihydrohonokiol -B
Delivery: Oral Capsule
Description: A novel formulation of a derivative of dihydrohonokiol, a known anti-anxiety compound, with potential for treatment of benzodiazepine dependency, anxiety, and other neurological disorders.
