Ibogaine is a naturally occurring alkaloid of the tryptamine family predominantly found in the west African plant Tabernanthe iboga. Traditionally it has religious and ceremonial use, and as a rites of passage into adulthood. In the west it was discovered in the early sixties in New York City by Howard Lotsof as an addiction arrester, detoxing, stabilizing, and reducing cravings to drugs of addiction. Ibogaine Therapy UK uses Ibogaine to arrest addiction to opiates, cocaine/crack, amphetamines, nicotine and alcohol. It can also be useful in reducing associated obsessive compulsive symptoms, as well as depressive and anxiety symptoms. Ibogaine therapy can deliver an addiction free period, and inconjunction with effective aftercare can provide long term freedom from chemical dependency. Ibogaine can also be used for experiential and psychospiritual reasons, as well as for peak experiences. It is an unlicensed although legal treatment in the UK, and safe under medical supervision.
