Natural Medicine Program: News

At its August 14, 2025 Board meeting, the Natural Medicine Advisory Board recommended that "The state write a letter of intent to start and follow Nagoya Protocol, the state should request a waiver to the Controlled Substance Act from the Federal Government to import Iboga or Ibogaine extract/powder from existing Gabon infrastructure that is Nagoya protocol compliant."

It is the Board’s intent and recommendation that any ibogaine sourcing into Colorado follow the Nagoya protocol and is culturally sensitive.

This recommendation will be provided to the Executive Directors of the Department of Regulatory Agencies and the Department of Revenue.
