MDMA under both undeveloped and developing drugs.

MDMA is in both of these sections despite this being a list. 172.56.164.121 (talk) 12:43, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is a one list entry per investigational new drug program. So a single drug can be developed independently by multiple different pharmaceutical companies and thus have multiple entries in the list. MDMA is being developed independently by five different pharmaceutical companies. It's being developed by these countries for different indications and for use by different routes of administration. And each is in different developmental phases. That's why MDMA is listed multiple times. (R)-MDMA is being developed independently by two different pharmaceutical companies also. – 76.174.0.57 (talk) 06:05, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
