An Overview Of Ibogaine Detox Treatment For Drug Addiction

By Donald Wright


For several years, drug addiction has been a leading cause of deaths of many adults and teenagers in various states. The addiction of opiates from illegal ones such as heroin, cocaine to medically prescribed ones like oxycodone, over-dependence on them requires immediate treatment lest something bad happens to the user. Ibogaine Detox Treatment has been applied to help reduce these situations to a minimum.

The extraction of these substance is gotten from the native plant known as Iboga. It is mostly extracted from the roots and barks of the plant and administered to the patient in form of a pill. The substance works to reset the opiate receptors in the brain, allowing the drugs to be flashed off from the body and mind of the person. By resetting the receptors in the brain, the patient will be able to lose the interest in the drug.

In as much as the use of this chemical is still under a lot of scrutiny, it has advantage over other prolonged methods such as continuous therapy has shown that it can help an individual and change his or her life quicker. However, the administering of these substance should be done in the presence of a qualified medical staff so as to allow proper monitoring of the vitals of the patient.

It is also required that each individual goes through a medical checkup before the chemical is administered. This is because not every individual can have a successful process having ingested the chemical. People with re-existing conditions such as kidney stones, vascular illnesses, pregnant women, psychiatric disorders among others do not qualify to be candidates.

For the substance to work properly, it is administered to a patient in a hospital set up and has three stages of effects that the person will experience. The first stage which is the Awakened Dream or Acute state. Here the person experiences a dreamlike situation whereby he or she experiences past events that occurred while he or she was conscious which lead to addiction of the substance which later will help the patient understand the leading cause of addiction.

The next step is where the patient wakes up and has time to reflect on the experience he or she has had in the first stage. This stage is known as introspective phase which can last for up to three days. The patient is allowed to recuperate physically and mentally as he or she reflect on everything. The person may also be tired and could spend most of the time lying down.

The third stage is where the patient gets back to normal. The effects of the Ibogaine begin to lessen as the individual will now learn how to accept all that he or she has seen and lean how to properly live. It is common for some to have a reduced number of sleeping hours but with the help of a specialist, they can embark on living a cleaner and healthier life without the drugs.

After going through these stages, the person is advised to sign up from therapy sessions. This will help the individual to get more professional advice on proper ways of living and prevent a relapse. The chances of a relapse are not completely off the table hence the more reason why the person should be attending therapy sessions.
