13 April 2012 Last updated at 06:28 ET Can a hallucinogen from Africa cure addiction?
By Stephanie Hegarty BBC World Service
Bwiti tribe Ibogaine is used by the Bwiti tribe in Gabon Since the 1960s a disparate group of scientists and former drug addicts have been advocating a radical treatment for addiction - a hallucinogen called ibogaine, derived from an African plant, that in some cases seems to obliterate withdrawal symptoms from heroin, cocaine and alcohol. So why isn't it widely used? For nearly 15 years, Thillen Naidoo's life was ruled by crack cocaine. Growing up in Chatsworth, a township on the outskirts of Durban in South Africa, he was surrounded by drugs. After a troubled childhood and the death of his father, he turned to cocaine. Though he held down a job as a carpenter and could go for days or even weeks without a hit, his wild drug binges often ended in arguments with his wife Saloshna and sometimes even physical abuse. By the time he met Dr Anwar Jeewa at the Minds Alive Rehab Centre in Chatsworth, Naidoo had tried to quit several times and failed. "Those were dark, dark days," he says.
Saloshna and Thillen Naidoo Thillen Naidoo and his wife were desperate and willing to try anything to ease his addiction Jeewa offered a radical solution, a hallucinogenic drug used in tribal ceremonies in central Africa that would obliterate his cravings. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-17666589

I seem to recall Hunter Thompson occasionally weaving Ibogaine into whatever he was writing at the time.
