Ibogaine can certainly be used to treat opiate addiction. People use other hallucinogens to treat addiction as well, although I think that ibogaine may be unique in its physical effects since I have read that people don't really have opiate withdrawals the days after the ibogaine sessions. People use LSD to help get over addiction, and I had quit using marijuana for a while after a mushroom trip, and that was when I was a daily user.
