Ibogaine, a natural alkaloid derived from the root of the iboga plant, has gained significant attention as a potential treatment for addiction and depression. While the active compound itself is ibogaine hydrochloride, it’s the metabolite noribogaine that is believed to be responsible for the therapeutic effects.
Noribogaine interacts with the brain’s serotonin system in a way that mimics the effects of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), commonly prescribed for depression. This interaction can lead to lasting improvements in mood and a reduction in depressive symptoms.
Ibogaine treatment is often used for individuals struggling with addiction. By disrupting the neural pathways associated with cravings, noribogaine can help people break free from addictive behaviors. Additionally, its potential to address underlying depression can provide a more comprehensive approach to recovery.
