 I’m looking actually for someone to my dopamine detox and studies about this plant looks promising. 

But this one study looks kinda scary, isn’t it? 

“Cardiotoxicity and Neurotoxicity Risks: Ibogaine can be cardiotoxic, potentially causing arrhythmias and sudden cardiac arrest. It affects the hERG channels in the heart, which are crucial for cardiac action potential repolarization (Litjens & Brunt, 2016). Neurotoxic effects have also been noted, particularly in the cerebellum, suggesting risks associated with its use (OʼHearn et al., 1993).”
