Dosages and consumption methods

Tabernanthe iboga rootbark typically contains anywhere between 1% - 4% ibogaine but can go even higher. Below you will find the dosage guidelines for ibogaine, as well as iboga rootbark, assuming it contains around 4% ibogaine. Keep in mind the dosage should be adjusted according to ones bodyweight. Since potency can vary, start with the lower end of the range, especially with a new batch. Both psychedelic and flood doses have prolonged effects, so adequate preparation and support are recommended. After the peak effects subside, some individuals may continue to feel altered perceptions or emotional clarity for days, particularly following higher doses.


1. Microdose (Low/Non-Psychoactive)


Rootbark Dose: 25 - 75 mg/kg

(ex. For a 70 kg person, this is approximately 1.75 - 5.25 g of root bark)


Ibogaine Dose: 1 - 3 mg/kg


Duration: Onset: 1 - 2 hours after ingestion Peak Effects: 2 - 4 hours Total Duration: Approximately 6 - 8 hours


Purpose: Used for subtle, non-psychoactive effects, like mild mood enhancement or cognitive benefits without strong psychedelic effects.


2. Psychoactive (Psychedelic) Dose


Rootbark Dose: 125 - 250 mg/kg

(ex. For a 70 kg person, this is approximately 8.75 - 17.5 g of root bark)


Ibogaine Dose: 5 - 10 mg/kg


Duration: Onset: 1 - 2 hours after ingestion Peak Effects: 3 - 5 hours Total Duration: Approximately 10 - 12 hours


Purpose: This range produces noticeable psychoactive effects, including introspection, mild to moderate visual effects, and enhanced self-reflection, suitable for those seeking a strong experience without the intensity of a flood dose.


3. Medicinal (Flood) Dose for Opioid Dependence **CAUTION**


Rootbark Dose: 375 - 500 mg/kg

(ex. For a 70 kg person, this is approximately 26.25 - 35 g of root bark)


Ibogaine Dose: 15 - 20 mg/kg


Duration: Onset: 1 - 3 hours after ingestion Peak Effects: 4 - 8 hours Total Duration: Approximately 24 - 36 hours or longer


Purpose: This dose is typically used in therapeutic settings for opioid dependence, as it induces a profound, long-lasting experience that may help disrupt addiction pathways. It is unlikely (around 10%) that one treatment will cure addiction.


Flood doses should only be taken under medical supervision due to potential health risks, including cardiac complications.
