Noscapine is an antitumor alkaloid from the opium poppy. From what I could gather, it hasn't been available here in the U.S. since the 1980's.

The FDA probably banned it because it helped kill cancer cells...and who would ever want that to happen!!? The FDA seems to be notorious for taking all the good things off the market and leaving the stuff that gives you the worst side effects.

In any case, you may have to import Noscapine from outside the country if this is something you need to obtain sooner than later, as I haven't found anyone in the U.S. who carries it. I would suggest searching for a credible online pharmacy in Canada or overseas.

I hope this helps!
