Ibogaine for Suboxone: Get Off Buprenorphine
Suboxone got you off heroin or pills. Now you're stuck on the strip. Every taper stalls at the last few milligrams, and stopping cold means weeks of withdrawal. Our stay in Rosarito is built for getting off Suboxone, too: medically supervised ibogaine straight off Suboxone, with no switch to another opioid first, then 90 days of support at home.

Why Suboxone is so hard to quit
Buprenorphine, the main drug in Suboxone and Subutex, is long-acting. It stays in your body much longer than heroin or oxycodone, so withdrawal starts later and lasts longer. That's why so many people stay on it for years even after they want off.
At Clear Ibogaine, you come to us straight off Suboxone. There's no switch to another opioid at home and no required waiting period before you travel.
How we get you off Suboxone, step by step
1. Intake call and screening before you travel
We go over your dose, how long you've been on it, other substances, medications and health history. We send you a lab order you can complete at a lab near home, and our medical team reviews the results with you. You'll know you're cleared before you book a flight.
We accept patients at any Suboxone dose. If you take more than 4 mg a day, your medical team reviews your dose and history individually and tells you what your plan looks like before you travel.
2. Prep calls and your treatment plan
On your prep calls, the medical team goes over your Suboxone use, your screening results and how to take your prescription until you arrive. You don't need to switch to another opioid first.
3. Arrival in Rosarito
We pick you up at San Diego airport and drive you to the house, about 30 minutes past the border.
4. Ibogaine treatment with heart monitoring
Once your body is ready, you receive ibogaine with continuous cardiac monitoring and medical staff on hand through the night and after. The main risk of ibogaine is to the heart, which is why every step before this one exists. How our safety screening works.
5. Recovery days, then home with a plan
The days after treatment are for rest, sleep and getting your appetite back. Before you leave, we set up your aftercare: weekly calls for 90 days, so you're not on your own in the first months home.
How long the stay is for Suboxone
Our $15,000 package covers 10 days. If your plan needs more, each extra day is $1,200, and the medical team sets your length before you book, so there are no surprises in Mexico.

|---|---|
| 10 days | $15,000 |
| 14 days | $19,800 |

Is this right for you?
This stay is a good fit if you:
- Have been on Suboxone, Subutex, Zubsolv or another buprenorphine product and want to be off it completely
- Have tried tapering and stalled, or relapsed after stopping
- Don't want a switch to another opioid before treatment
- Are ready to travel to Mexico for 10 days or more
- Can pass a medical screening for heart health, labs and medications
It may not be right if you have heart disease, a heart rhythm problem, serious liver problems, or take medications that can't be safely stopped. Screening tells us for sure.
What to expect after
Ibogaine is not a cure, and no clinic can honestly promise you'll never use again. In published opioid studies, about half of patients reported no opioid use one month after treatment, and in one survey 30% said they never used opioids again. What raises your odds is what happens next. That's why aftercare is part of the price, not an add-on.
Questions about ibogaine and Suboxone
Can I do ibogaine while I'm still on Suboxone?
Yes. We treat people coming straight off Suboxone. You don't switch to another opioid first, and there is no required washout period. Your medical team reviews your screening results and current use, and plans your treatment day with you on your prep calls.
How long do I need to stay for Suboxone?
The $15,000 package covers 10 days. If your medical team recommends more time, each extra day is $1,200. Your exact length depends on your history and screening results. The medical team sets it before you book.
How much does ibogaine for Suboxone cost?
$15,000 covers a 10-day stay, prep calls, San Diego airport pickup and return, and 90 days of weekly aftercare calls. Extra days are $1,200 each. For example, a 14-day stay would be $19,800. A $3,000 deposit holds your date and is fully refunded if our medical team doesn't clear you.
Does ibogaine take away Suboxone withdrawal?
Ibogaine is used to interrupt opioid withdrawal, but experiences vary and we can't promise a withdrawal-free stay. The medical team watches you around the clock and treats symptoms as they come.
Do I have to taper or switch off Suboxone before I come?
No. You don't need to taper to zero or switch to another opioid before you travel. Keep taking your prescription as directed until your medical team tells you otherwise. Don't change your dose on your own.
What if I'm also using fentanyl or drinking?
Tell us on the intake call. Fentanyl, alcohol and benzodiazepines change the plan and the safety checks, and sometimes the length of stay. We'd rather know now than find out in Mexico.
Will I be cleared before I fly?
Yes. We send you a lab order you can complete at a lab near home, and our medical team reviews your results and history with you. You'll know you're cleared before you book a flight. If you're not, your $3,000 deposit is refunded.
Is ibogaine legal?
Ibogaine is not FDA-approved in the United States. It is used at medically supervised clinics in Mexico, including ours in Rosarito, about 30 minutes from the San Diego border.
