"We are pleased to partner with Filament Health and Magdalena to facilitate this second import of coca leaf," said Silveria Dongo Gonzales, Technical Director of ENACO. "We appreciate Filament and Magdalena's diligent efforts in maintaining a productive relationship with ENACO."

Magdalena was founded on a mission to develop novel, natural prescription medicines derived from plants for mental health indications including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adults. The coca leaf imported from Peru will be used for the development of a botanical drug candidate for the treatment of ADHD.

"By importing this significant volume of raw material, we are able to begin the important work of exploring coca leaf's therapeutic potential for the treatment of ADHD," said Benjamin Lightburn, Chief Executive Officer of Filament Health and Magdalena Board Member.
