IBOGA EXTRACTION?

[Calaquendi]

greetings! need help. sifted thru vaults and sniffed around online but haven't found a 'user-friendly' way to effectively extract alkaloids from T.Iboga root-bark.
anyone know if a 'standard' A/B will work? need this bad... have found what they call "Indra" extract: seems to be an infusion *yuk* plus this seems difficult to measure appropriate dosage levels. don't have equip. (or skills) for a sophisticated process, and this seems to be an elusive endeavor. not many people mess with this, and rightly so, but again, swim has great need to find answers post-haste.
an opportunity has arisen and needs to be met...please help! thank you...

try looking in mexico/on mexican sites. or you could call a clinic in mexico or another country that has legal iboga clinics and see what they use and where they get it from. canada supports iboga detox... you could just take a vacation a get things taken care of.

as far as an extraction, i have no idea.... what kind of molecule is Ibogaine?
indole? alkaloid? if alkaloid you might be able to A/B then salt it out to HCl salt..... getting the bark could be difficult tho.


from wikipedia:
Pure crystalline ibogaine hydrochloride is the most standardized formulation dosing and typically must be produced by the semi-synthesis from voacangine in commercial laboratories. In Bwiti religious ceremonies, the rootbark is pulverized and swallowed in large amounts to produce intense psychoactive effects. In Africa, iboga rootbark is sometimes chewed, which releases small amounts of ibogaine to produce a stimulant effect. Ibogaine is also available in a total alkaloid extract of the Tabernanthe iboga plant, which also contains all the other iboga alkaloids and thus has only about one-fifth the potency by weight as standardized ibogaine hydrochloride.[23]

Total alkaloid extracts of T. iboga are often loosely called "Indra extract". However, that name actually refers to a particular stock of total alkaloid extract produced in Europe in 1981. The fate of that original stock (as well as its original quality) is unknown.

~thanx for prompt reply, very considerate. as for what kind of molecule Ibogaine is: it is an indole alkaloid, which, by my reckoning should be able to be 'pulled' from an A/B not unlike DMT? this would, ostensibly, generate a free-base of total alkaloid (?)
SWIM has recently obtained 50g of high-quality root bark from a trusted source...this at much risk and with heavy expense...so there isnt alot of room for error. seeing as how this type of healing is illegal in the US, SWIM has been stymied at every turn~ as people are 'touchy' about advice concerning Iboga. not to mention it's propensity for dangerous use, this generally from opiate users who aren't careful enough in their process of recovery.
any help / advice much appreciated...blessings, C

I'm not sure of your intention,none of my business,but there are several threads posted,not for extraction,but other intentions for Iboga use.I've posted several threads from day 1 methadone w-d to two yrs later,and I will say from my own experience if your foaf is wanting it for opiate w-d,then under proper supervision,it should work as it did for me.I took 1 heavy dose outside the walls of a clinic,with no supervision,and had the most disturbing visions imaginable,but it worked,I dont want to ramble one,just please read the previous threads,if you can,use xtreme caution.This isnt something to play with!!!!My sincere thoughts are with your foaf,NOT A REC TRIP!!!!!PEACE friend

I did the same, searched awhile ago and came up with nothing. So after raping the internet I posted what I could find in this (Ibogaine Extraction) thread. Best of luck, those were all the methods I could find, none of them seem terribly harder than a deemster extraction.
Hope that helps
