Did they patent this? Personal sad related story is that a friend who had sexual abuse as a teenager and got into drug use and prostitution in her 20s was inspired to try Ibogaine. She succeeded in raising the money from friends and family and made a trip to a supposedly reputable place in Mexico. While there and under the influence of Ibogaine she was sexually assaulted by one of the male nurses. The nurse was fired, but she was told if she didn’t keep quite they would sue her for defamation and refused to even refund her. She’s just a junky after all. As someone who ran an underground Psychedelic clinic for years, I can’t stress how damaging it could be to assaulted while at the peak of a psychedelic trip trying to heal from a past sexual assault. She’s still alive and still struggling w various addictions. She’s also one of the sweetest most loving and wise souls I know, despite her challenges. This experience was no doubt a motivating factor for me founding decriminalize nature NYC to help get better domestic to plant medicines.
