Question by juggalo_omen: Ibogane: how do you feel about it’s potential theraputic use? READ DETAILS!?
If you’re not familiar with Ibogane and it’s thereputic aplications, read this article http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/ibogaine/ibogaine_faq.shtml

To summarize the article, it is a halucinogenic drug that has the “side-effect” of being a “chemical dependance interupter”… meaning it essentialy blocks the sypmtoms of withdraw… the halucinations it produces tend to be thereputic in nature, often times pointing out the psychological source of the adiction, ie what caused the individual to start abusing drugs in the first place…

Ibogane is currently Schedule I, but there has been at least 1 FDA approved research project involving human testing…

In tests done in Panama, Ibogane has been shown to help in clinical rehab therapy for adiction to cocane, heroine, nicotine, alcohol, possibly more…

Where do you stand?
Ibogane was placed in schedule 1 before it was given a chance for testing, simply by proxy that it’s a halucinogen of sorts… and at the time, they thought that there couldn’t possibly be a medical use for halucinogens… failing to realize that there’s a spiritual use for them, and violating people’s first amendment rights… but that’s not important for this question, this question is about Ibogane’s clinical use to treat chemical dependancy, not civil rights…
