Abstract: This invention provides novel (1R,4R) 7-oxo-2-azabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene and derivatives thereof, preferably in substantially enantiomerically enriched forms, intermediates thereto, and processes of their synthesis.

Abstract: This invention is directed to a method of treating opioid or opioid-like drug addiction, including acute and post-acute withdrawal symptoms, comprising treating an addicted patient with noribogaine at a dosage that provides an average serum concentration of about 50 ng/mL to about 180 ng/mL under conditions where the QT interval prolongation does not exceed about 50 milliseconds.

Abstract: This invention is directed to methods of treating pain in patients comprising treating patients with ibogaine, an ibogaine derivative, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and/or solvate thereof at a therapeutic dosage that provides an average serum concentration of about 50 ng/mL to about 850 ng/mL.

Abstract: This invention provides methods and compositions for treating nicotine addiction or treating or preventing nicotine cravings in a subject. The method comprises administering to the patient in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of noribogaine, noribogaine derivative, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Abstract: This invention provides methods and compositions for treating or preventing migraine headache and/or symptoms thereof in a subject. The method comprises administering to the subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of noribogaine, noribogaine derivative, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Abstract: A short treatment with noribogaine shows promise for treating drug dependency. Many opioid addicts are treated with methadone. Giving noribogaine to mammal concurrently being administered methadone surprisingly exacerbates methadone's negative side-effects, and increases the risk of death. Therefore, prior to noribogaine treatment, a patient on methadone therapy undergoes a period of methadone abstinence to wash out the methadone. Surprisingly, noribogaine does not react negatively to morphine. According to the invention, methadone regimen is replaced with morphine prior to noribogaine treatment.

Abstract: Stable noribogaine salt ansolvates are useful for preparing pharmaceutical compositions and for alleviating nociceptive pain in a patient. Such ansolvates can be prepared by slurrying solvated forms, preferably MeOH solvated noribogaine hydrochloride in EtOH/water.

Abstract: Synthetic noribogaine preferably free of ibogaine and, optionally, one or more of other naturally occurring Tabernanth iboga alkaloids, is provided.

Abstract: This invention provides a method for treating anxiety-related disorder or impulse control disorder, regulating food intake, attenuating food cravings, or treating anger and/or violence and disorders associated therewith in a patient, comprising administering to the patient in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of ibogaine, ibogaine derivative, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and/or solvate thereof.

Abstract: This invention is directed to a method for pre-screening an opioid-addicted patient to determine the patient's tolerance for a therapeutic dose of noribogaine.

Abstract: This invention relates generally to prodrugs of noribogaine. This invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the prodrugs of noribogaine as well as method of treating pain, addiction and/or stress using such compounds and/or pharmaceutical compositions.

Abstract: This invention is directed to methods of treating pain in patients comprising treating patients with ibogaine, an ibogaine derivative, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and/or solvate thereof at a therapeutic dosage that provides an average serum concentration of about 50 ng/mL to about 850 ng/mL.
