Clear answers to important questions.

An advocate helps individuals and families understand the treatment landscape, research providers, compare information, and coordinate practical details. The role is independent decision support, not treatment or medical advice.

No. We do not operate a treatment center, sell ibogaine, prescribe or administer it, or provide clinical care.

Provider research may identify options worth further consideration and concerns that need answers. Any discussion is based on the client’s needs and available information. It is not certification, accreditation, or a guarantee of safety.

No. Ibogaine Advocate is paid by the client. We do not accept referral fees, commissions, or compensation from treatment centers for sending them clients.

We review areas including screening, clinical oversight, monitoring, staffing, emergency preparedness, consent, costs, communication, and aftercare. We distinguish information supplied by the provider from information independently verified, and identify gaps.

Ibogaine carries serious medical risks, including potentially life-threatening heart rhythm disturbances. Screening and monitoring do not eliminate risk. Individual risk and eligibility require evaluation by qualified medical professionals. No advocate or clinic can guarantee a safe outcome.

Legal status depends on the jurisdiction and can change. In the United States, ibogaine is federally listed as a Schedule I controlled substance. Availability abroad does not establish legality, regulatory oversight, or safety. Verify current rules with the relevant authorities and qualified legal counsel before making arrangements.

No. Medical eligibility, medication management, diagnosis, and treatment decisions belong with qualified medical professionals. We can help organize questions for them.

No. Our work is education, research, decision support, and practical coordination. Do not change medication or treatment based on information from this website or an advocacy conversation.

Yes. Individuals can work directly with Ibogaine Advocate. Family involvement is optional and should reflect your preferences.

Yes. We can help family members understand the process and organize questions. Family involvement does not replace the individual’s consent, preferences, or relationship with their clinicians.

That depends on the individual’s care plan and the provider. Advocacy can help clarify follow-up arrangements and practical support at home. It does not replace ongoing medical, mental health, or substance-use care.

Fees depend on the scope of support. Ask for a clear description of services and fees before deciding whether to work together. Advocacy fees are separate from clinic, travel, and other treatment-related costs.

We discuss your situation, questions, timeline, and research so far, and whether independent advocacy fits your needs. Submitting a consultation request does not book an appointment or create a client relationship.
