    Ibogaine is a schedule 1 substance in the US. Not only is it illegal, it is also virtually impossible to do clinical research on it in the US.

    Canada, Mexico and Costa Rica are the best bet if you are looking for treatment near the United States. People who take this route typically take their last dose of opiates just before departure. Upon arrival ibogaine providers offering detox for opiates will have maintenance meds waiting when they pick you up from the airport.

    Opiate treatment with ibogaine may be given as withdrawal symptoms begin, not when they are full blown.

    Canadian immigration makes it difficult for anyone with with a criminal conviction to enter the country. If that is the case, Mexico or Costa Rica are the way to go.

    You might check with MAPS (maps.org). They do authorized studies of psychedelic and other compounds legally. If nothing else, they certainly would be aware of ibogaine research if not do it their selves.
