Depression treatment begins with a series six IV ketamine infusions over a two-week period.
Infusion appointments last 45–55 minutes. Total appointment time including pre-infusion and recovery will be approximately 90 minutes.
Maintenance infusions are recommended once per month after your initial series of six infusions. We recommended maintenance infusions for one year post treatment.
Wear loose, comfortable clothing and arrive at your appointment in a good mental state with an open mind. Ketamine may cause nausea, so patients are pre-treated with (Zofran) prior to infusion. Plan to eat something light at least two hours prior to your infusion, but avoid a large meal right before your visit.
Most patients with mild to severe anxiety find the ketamine infusion experience to be pleasant. Our treatment rooms are private and serene. Upon check in, we will take you to a room and place cardiac monitors on your chest. You will be offered a clean blanket and noise cancelling headphones to wear during treatment.
Patients typically do not go to sleep with this dose of ketamine, however you will go into a dream-like state (between dreaming and being awake, where you can control the dream). The infusion for mood disorders generally lasts about 45 minutes, but allow around 90 minutes for your appointment to account for preparation and recovery.
Most effects of the medicine will wear off within minutes after the infusion, but you may feel more tired than usual for a few hours following your visit. Ketamine is generally well-tolerated, but if any side effects are encountered, such as visual disturbances or elevated blood pressure, our staff will quickly give IV medication to counteract them.
