There is one that hasn’t been referenced yet ibogaine. not legal in most places and reputable clinic screen their patients intently because it can be very hard on the body. It’s not recommended for long term or old patients.

It’s an opiate antagonist with a very long effect time as in days. It is also a powerful psychedelic which is the second reason the medical community won’t touch serious research In most countries.

there are a couple of non psychedelic derivatives that are being worked on.

I am not sure the derivatives will pan out nearly as well, as some close friends who went through it, they personally believe that the psychedelic aspect was very important. apparently the trip is very introspective and helps people deal with issues that got them into opiates in the first place
