KY Attorney General supports alternative treatment for opioid use disorder

Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron supports the Opioid Abatement Advisory Commission’s plans to invest in alternative treatments for the opioid epidemic. One substance they are considering is Ibogaine. It is derived from plants commonly found in west Africa.

Ibogaine is currently listed as a Schedule One substance, which is defined as drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse. Cameron said it is time something is done to deal with the opioid problem.
