Learn what iboga and ibogaine are, why people seek them, what research says and where uncertainty remains.
Independent, harm-reduction focused information for people in New Zealand considering iboga or ibogaine—before, during and after the experience.
Now under new ownership and management · New Zealand
Iboga is a powerful West African plant medicine; ibogaine is one of its primary alkaloids. Both carry significant physical and psychological risks. Under new ownership and management, we remain focused on helping people understand the evidence, ask better questions and make informed decisions without presenting treatment as a cure or certainty.
The ibogaine.org.nz monitoring and companion app is designed to support clinics, practitioners and their clients before, during and after treatment. It helps structure ongoing observation, keep relevant information connected and support timely follow-up—adding another layer of visibility intended to reduce avoidable risk throughout the therapeutic process.
The app complements clinical judgement, appropriate medical screening and direct professional oversight; it does not replace them.

We respect the Bwiti traditions from which iboga knowledge emerges while clearly distinguishing cultural practice, clinical research and personal accounts. Our role is to support informed reflection—not to prescribe, diagnose or promise outcomes.
