Even though this vitamin was not approved as a treatment by the FDA, many doctors, including one named John A. Richardson MD, began using the vitamin “illegally” to treat relatives at his medical clinic in San Francisco, and it produced astonishing results that were better than orthodox treatments. Richardson’s success with these treatments is documented in Case Histories: The Richardson Cancer Clinic Experience by John A. Richardson MD and Patricia Irving Griffin, RN. The FDA was scathing in its attack on Laetrile. The FDA views Laetrile as an unapproved form of treatment and one that is “illegal” for a practitioner to administer, therefore Laetrile is not available for purchase in the United States.
