Fadiman Protocol
The Classic 1+2 Schedule - Most Studied Protocol
The Fadiman Protocol is the most well-known and researched microdosing schedule. Developed by psychedelic researcher Dr. James Fadiman, this protocol follows a simple pattern: take a microdose on Day 1, then rest for 2 days (Days 2 and 3), and repeat.
This 3-day cycle prevents tolerance buildup while allowing you to observe both the immediate effects on dosing days and the lingering benefits on rest days. Many practitioners report that Day 2 often feels just as good as Day 1, if not better, as the insights and mood improvements continue to unfold.
The Fadiman Protocol is ideal for beginners due to its simplicity and extensive documentation. Thousands of users worldwide have shared their experiences, making it the gold standard for microdosing.
