herbal cocaine?

i was floating around online and i noticed an ad for this stuff called "snow blow". its an herbal powder and safer substitute to illegal substance.

its made up of:
Caffeine, Acoru Calamus, Hydrastis Canadensis, Tilla Europea, Paulina Capana, L-Taurine, Menthol....

and that is the end of the description.

does anyone out there have any idea whats up with that? the company doesnt ship or sell anything to the US, including things legal here, they just dont do business with us.

does anyone know the legalities of such a substance?

i think something like that would help deal with chemical dependencies.

All I can tell you is with the same name as a controlled substance the FDA will not approve of it. The only reason to market such a product under this name is to promote a high that is maybe comparable to the original which is not a medical use by any means or stretch of the word. Now to help with cleaning up someone's chemical dependency, I'm sure there are far more productive treatments available in a substance abuse rehabilitation therapy.

doesn't sound good

Indeed, drug treatment centers would never use something like this as a ‘cool-down’ drug method. Whatever this snowball stuff is it doesn’t sound like good news.

They actually do it all the time for meth and heroin users
