Try

Elsevier Science Direct, search ibogaine for very good returns
JSTOR also good returns for ibogaine AND addiction
Google scholar, most sweeping, so use many keywords for example: ibogaine and addiction and heroin treatment

Primary sources on this drug [ibogaine] included:

research
clinical trials
findings and conclusions reported by scientists in reputable medical journal
conference proceedings discussing this drug ibogaine [2009 drug policy alliance conference]

Consider locating a literature review on Ibogaine and search names of scientists who are proven in the ibogaine research field (metaphor would be to grow the "pearl" listed in the literature review).
