Iboga / Ibogaine
Introduction: Why Choose Ibogaine at Psychedelics Lab?
Ibogaine is a powerful psychoactive indole alkaloid extracted primarily from the root bark of Tabernanthe iboga, a shrub native to Central West Africa. Praised for its unique psychedelic and oneirogenic properties, ibogaine has a long history of traditional spiritual use and is increasingly researched for its potential in treating substance use disorders. Psychedelics Lab offers high-purity ibogaine and related compounds for scientific research, produced under stringent quality standards for researchers in the USA and Europe.
What Is Ibogaine?
Ibogaine is a naturally occurring indole alkaloid structurally related to tryptamines and alkaloids such as melatonin and harmaline. It exerts complex pharmacological effects by interacting with multiple neurotransmitter systems including kappa and mu opioid receptors, NMDA receptors, serotonin and dopamine transporters, sigma receptors, cholinergic receptors, and various ion channels. This multi-receptor activity underlies its powerful psychedelic effects, as well as its unique ability to reduce withdrawal symptoms and craving in addiction therapy. The active metabolite noribogaine also has distinct pharmacodynamics, mainly acting as a serotonin reuptake inhibitor and kappa-opioid receptor agonist.
