Treating Chemical Dependence With Ibogaine
Ibogaine is a naturally occurring psychoactive substance that is harvested and purified from the Tabernanthe iboga plant. This plant is an Apocynaceae shrub that grows in the jungles of West Africa. Ibogaine was first used by the people of the Gabon for both ritual purposes and for medicinal healing. Recent studies have revealed that Ibogiane contains extremely effective anti-addictive properties which are now used to treat severe addiction.
One of the most renowned therapeutic characteristics of Ibogaine is that it eliminates opioid withdrawal completely. Extensive studies and research in the field of addiction have suggested that Ibogaine plays an extraordinarily effective role in all kinds of drug addiction treatment, including, heroin addiction treatment, cocaine addiction treatment, alcohol addiction treatment, methadone addiction treatment, meth addiction treatment and oxycontin addiction treatment. Many researchers share the belief that Ibogaine also has characteristics that might help treat compulsive behavioral patterns that are not related to chemical dependence or substance abuse.

Oxycontin is exceptionally effective in relieving chronic pain symptoms of the most severe type. Powerful drugs like Oxycontin are most commonly used to treat terminal diseases and serious injuries.
Oxycontin and Oxycontin related drugs are opiates that target the brain’s opioid receptors and depress the central nervous system. Opiates are organic drugs derived from opium that is harvested from the poppy plant.
