Ketamine for depression
Ketamine is different from traditional anti-depressants
From mild to moderate to severe cases, depression responds robustly to low-dose ketamine treatments. Those suffering from suicidal ideation may find these symptoms removed entirely following the first weeks of treatment.
Ketamine is different from traditional antidepressants and can be effective even if other treatment methods have yielded sub-optimal results. This powerful medication can facilitate major changes, quickly. It doesn’t change who you are, only how you feel.
