Is Iboga Right for You?

Is Iboga right for you? It is one of the most important questions to ask before you consider an Iboga retreat, and it deserves an honest answer. Iboga is a powerful plant medicine from Central Africa, held for generations by the Bwiti people. It asks a great deal of the body and the heart, and it is best met with a clear intention, steady footing and good support.

This free readiness quiz walks you through what matters most when preparing for Iboga: the medications you take, your physical health, supplements and other substances, your emotional wellbeing, and the support around you. It takes about eight minutes. There are no right or wrong answers, and nothing you enter is saved or sent anywhere.

At the end, you get a clear list of anything worth raising with your doctor or with our team before you go further. If you take prescription medication, start with why medications matter before an Iboga retreat. To learn more about the experience itself, read what an Iboga ceremony involves and what to expect before and after Iboga.

This quiz is a reflection tool and not medical advice. Only a qualified clinician who knows your history can tell you whether Iboga is safe for you.
