Is Ketamine for me?
If Nothing Else Works
IV Ketamine therapy for depression is not for everyone. But if you’ve failed other treatments it may be right for you.
Ketamine works for depression in a mechanism completely different from typical antidepressants like SSRIs and others. It works on the glutamate system, instead of the serotonin system. In this way, patients see rapid results without having to wait weeks or longer.
Clinical trials by Zarate and others have shown that
ketamine can lift depression in hours, or even minutes –
much faster than the most commonly used antidepressant
medications now available, which often require weeks to
take effect. Further, the antidepressant effects of a
single dose can last for a week or longer.
