Why isnt Ibogaine allowed in America?

Ibogaine is an anti-addictive drug with potential to cure addiction to cocaine, crack, alcohol, presription drugs. However it has mild hallucogenic properties lasting for about 2-4 hrs after treatment and also ataxia( gross incordination of muscle movements lasting for about 12 hrs) More can be learnt about Ibogaine by searching wikipedia or the web.

Sheesh. If you read the Wikipedia article, you know exactly why it isn’t approved in the USA. It has potentially fatal brain & heart toxicity, and there isn’t enough profit in it for a drug company to put up funding for further FDA trials.
