The legal position in Mexico

Ibogaine and iboga do not appear in the narcotic or psychotropic schedules of Mexico's Ley General de Salud (articles 234 and 245), and no ibogaine-specific regulation exists. That is not the same as legal and licensed: no official standard sets ibogaine safety protocols such as cardiac monitoring. Peyote and psilocybin mushrooms are scheduled in Mexico. Peyote is never listed; psilocybin retreats are listed separately, as illegal but tolerated in practice.

The sources for this
  • The consolidated Ley General de Salud (last reformed DOF 15 January 2026) lists narcotics in article 234 and psychotropics in article 245. Article 245 group I includes DMT, mescaline (with peyote, Lophophora williamsii, named), psilocin and psilocybin (with hallucinogenic mushrooms of any botanical variety named). Ibogaine and iboga do not appear anywhere in the Act. (Camara de Diputados del H. Congreso de la Union, 15 Jan 2026)
  • Infobae (21 September 2026) reports that ibogaine is not on the Ley General de Salud controlled-substance list, that clinics must operate as COFEPRIS-licensed medical establishments, and that no official standard sets ibogaine-specific safety protocols such as cardiac monitoring. (Infobae Mexico, 21 Sep 2026)

What a medically supervised ibogaine involves

The typical shape of this kind of programme. Use it as a checklist to ask against, not as this centre's timetable.

  1. Before arrivalPre-screening paperwork, bloods and cardiac workup. This is not a formality. Ibogaine prolongs the QT interval and has caused fatal arrhythmias.
  2. Days 1 to 2On-site medical assessment, ECG, electrolyte correction, and psychological intake. Stabilisation before anything is administered.
  3. Day 3 to 4Ibogaine administered under continuous cardiac monitoring with nursing staff present throughout the active phase, which runs many hours.
  4. Recovery daysThe grey-day period afterwards: sleep, low stimulation, liver-supporting food, gentle bodywork, and counselling as capacity returns.
  5. Before dischargeIntegration planning and aftercare referral. Relapse risk is highest in the weeks after, so what happens next matters more than the dose did.

All ibogaine treatment centres in Mexico, and the legal position there

Before any ibogaine treatment

  • Deaths: consecutive case seriesSerious risk

    A review of all known deaths outside West Central Africa temporally linked to ibogaine from 1990 through 2008 found 19 people who died within 1.5 to 76 hours of taking it. Pre-existing medical conditions, mainly cardiovascular, and/or other abused substances explained or contributed to 12 of the 14 deaths with adequate post-mortem data; seizures from alcohol and benzodiazepine withdrawal were another apparent risk factor. (Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2012)

  • Later death countSerious risk

    A 2018 review gives a detailed update of 33 deaths known to have occurred after ibogaine, including 5 in the UK, and attributes serious adverse effects to undiagnosed health conditions and/or concomitant use of other drugs. (Progress in Brain Research, 2018)

  • Mechanism of cardiac risk (hERG)Serious risk

    Therapeutic concentrations of ibogaine reduce currents through human hERG potassium channels, providing a mechanism by which it may generate life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias. A 2015 review links the accumulating reports of sudden death to this arrhythmia risk. (Addiction Biology, 2014; Molecules, 2015)

  • QT prolongation measured in a clinical studySerious risk

    In a Dutch university study of 14 opioid-dependent patients given a single 10 mg/kg dose, maximum QTc prolongation averaged 95 ms (range 29 to 146 ms), half reached a QTc over 500 ms, and in 6 of 14 the QTc stayed above 450 ms beyond 24 hours. No torsades de pointes occurred, but severe transient ataxia (unable to walk unsupported) was seen in all patients. (Addiction, 2022)
