Ibogaine

Illegal

DMT / Ayahuasca

Illegal

Isolated DMT in Lista I. Ayahuasca brew tolerated as traditional/Indigenous use (ingredients sold openly), but this informal exemption is not a lawful therapeutic pathway, so general status is illegal.

Mescaline / Peyote

Illegal

Mescaline explicitly in Lista I; consumable preparations prohibited. San Pedro (Echinopsis pachanoi) and native Bolivian Torch not separately scheduled and likely cultivable as ornamentals; peyote not native. No therapeutic pathway.

Ketamine

Legal / regulated access

Tracked separately — a prescription medicine, excluded from the blended status.

Not in Lista I; prescription anesthetic (human/veterinary), consistent with UN 1971 Schedule III medicine status.
