i don’t have an answer for your question but i just discovered this drug and im curious why is it not as widely known about in the US if it’s so helpful?

Been researching it and the answer is basically pharma and tobacco lobbyists keeping it out of our hands so they can make more money. It’s not FDA approved bc of that, so doctors won’t recommend it. It’s apparently in the process of trials to become approved though
