For people seeking treatment or information
What is ibogaine? Research, risks and screening.
Ibogaine is an alkaloid from the root bark of Tabernanthe iboga, a shrub native to Central West Africa and central to the Bwiti spiritual tradition of Gabon. It is not a recreational experience and not a quick fix.
People most consistently report an interruption of opioid withdrawal and craving—an opening, not a cure. Research also examines its effects on neuroplasticity, traumatic brain injury, PTSD and other substance-use disorders, but evidence remains developing.
Ibogaine can affect heart rhythm. Screening, medication review, electrolyte management and continuous monitoring are not optional details; they are the foundation of responsible care.
Before anything else
A cardiac assessment including ECG, liver testing, a full medication review and honest disclosure of any health condition.
Questions worth asking a provider
Who oversees medical care? What continuous monitoring is in place? What happens after the session, and who supports that?
