Although the claimed success rates are high, and the organization presents a convincing front of testimonial and "scientific" evidence; the reality of Narconon seems questionable.
Based on unproven and wrong science, the treatments have
little correct philosophical justification, and when independent studies
greatly counter reported success rates, it would be prudent to approach drug
treatment within Narconon very cautiously.
Narconon may not be (or may very well be) a recruiting
ground for a cult like organization as some people will claim, but its methods
are questionable, possibly dangerous, and its success rates grossly exaggerated.
