Optimi Health (NASDAQ: OPTH) (CSE: OPTI) (FSE: 8BN) announced progress on its Ibogaine Initiative, securing naturally derived ibogaine from two sources in both hydrochloride and freebase forms. The company expects development of finished ibogaine drug products to begin this summer at its GMP-certified manufacturing facility in British Columbia, with plans to produce standardized 50 mg and 100 mg encapsulated dosage formats for research and regulated access programs.

The update comes amid growing interest in ibogaine research and expanding public funding for psychedelic therapies, including a recently announced $50 million program in Texas. Optimi said its development program will include formulation, manufacturing validation, analytical testing and packaging processes, leveraging the same GMP infrastructure currently used to produce psilocybin and MDMA products. Management believes Canada's regulatory framework and the company's existing licenses position Optimi to support increasing demand for GMP-grade ibogaine for clinical research and potential therapeutic applications.
