Ketamine is now being offered as an innovative, cutting edge and effective psychedelic treatment for severe and debilitating depression. It has also been shown to be effective for management of other psychiatric illnesses including PTSD, addiction, OCD, and certain pain disorders. The therapeutic effects from ketamine can be almost immediate which makes this a unique treatment in the field of psychiatry. It’s been shown that the most effective route of administration for ketamine is through intravenous infusion.
Our San Diego ketamine patients have experienced positive effects from ketamine within a few hours of the first treatment. For the longest lasting results, one must complete the 2-week course of treatment with 6 infusions, which can provide positive results for up to a period of several months. Sometimes occasional “booster” infusions are needed to help maintain the benefits.
