Biochem/physiol Actions
CNS stimulant and hallucinogen; anti-convulsant.
Ibogaine is a central nervous system stimulant and hallucinogen that has been reported to be a σ2 agonist, a noncompetitive NMDA receptor antagonist at the phencyclidine site and an enhancer of purinergic muscle contractions. It is also a competitive inhibitor of serotonin and dopamine transport. It is an anti-convulsant and has anti-addictive properties against cocaine and heroin.
Preparation Note
Alkaloid isolated from the African shrub, Tabernanthe iboga.

Although the alkaloid ibogaine is a potent hallucinogenic agent some indications suggest that it may be useful for the treatment of opioid and cocaine addiction. The neurochemical mechanism(s) underlying ibogaine effects remain unclear. In the present study we investigated the

Ibogaine, one of several alkaloids found in the root bark of the African shrub Tabernanthe iboga, has been claimed to be effective in treating multiple forms of drug abuse. Problems associated with side effects of ibogaine have spawned a search

Ibogaine, a putative antiaddictive drug, is remarkable in its apparent ability to downgrade withdrawal symptoms and drug craving for extended periods of time after a single dose. Ibogaine acts as a non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonist, while NMDA has been implicated

Ibogaine and 18-methoxycoronaridine are naturally occurring alkaloids reported to possess antiaddictive properties in several models of drug dependence. We have examined their effect at mu-opioid receptors regulating neurogenic contractions of several smooth muscle preparations and also against spontaneous contractions of

Pretreatment (19 h) with the putative antiaddictive agent, ibogaine, has been shown previously to potentiate cocaine-induced locomotion in rats. The present study demonstrates that the magnitude of this effect of ibogaine is dependent on the previous cocaine history of the
