Ketamine belongs to the class of drugs known as dissociative anesthetics, which induce a state of dissociation from the environment and self. The United States classifies ketamine as a Schedule III controlled substance, meaning it carries risks of addiction and dependence when misused. Doctors primarily use ketamine for anesthesia, sedation, and pain relief. It is […]

Ketamine at home treatment involves using Ketamine tablets (RDT) or troches combined with counseling sessions to address various mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, and chronic pain. This occurs over telehealth and treatment sessions occur in the patient’s own home. How does Ketamine treatment work? Ketamine approved by the FDA as an anesthetic, antidepressant, […]
Ketamine is a rapid-acting general anesthetic that has significant analgesic activity and a relative lack of cardiopulmonary depressant effects in healthy animals. It is thought to induce both anesthesia and amnesia by functionally disrupting the CNS through over-stimulating the CNS or inducing a cataleptic state. Ketamine binds the phencyclidine-binding site of the NMDA receptors, which […]
Ketamine has transitioned from an operating-room anesthetic to a headline-grabbing mental-health intervention. When handled by qualified professionals, it can bring relief to select patients suffering from treatment-resistant depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), or chronic pain. Unfortunately, an expanding marketplace of pop-up clinics, mail-order suppliers, and poorly supervised infusion centers has turned a life-saving medicine into […]
Properties: Also known as esketamine, this “left-handed” enantiomer is a more potent anesthetic and has a higher binding affinity for the brain’s NMDA receptors. It provides a more rapid onset of action compared to R-ketamine.Status: A nasal spray formulation of esketamine has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of treatment-resistant depression and for […]
Properties: This “right-handed” enantiomer is generally associated with fewer side effects, including less dissociation and hallucinatory experiences. Preclinical studies suggest it may have a longer-lasting antidepressant effect compared to S-ketamine. How to Tell if a Family Member is Addicted to Ketamine Have you ever found yourself worried about a family member, suspecting they might be […]
Ketamine is an unusual type of psychedelic drug — called a dissociative — that has surged in popularity. It reliably produces pain control, forgetfulness, intoxication, disassociation, and euphoria, effects that underlie its medical and recreational uses. Originally derived from PCP, or “angel dust,” ketamine has been used in hospitals and veterinary clinics as an anesthetic […]
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in exploring alternative and innovative treatments for mental illness. Among these novel approaches, ketamine has emerged as a promising treatment for various mental health disorders. Traditionally known as an anesthetic and pain-relieving medication, ketamine has shown potential in treating mental health disorders such as depression and […]
While the anesthesia of wild animals is often carried out under difficult conditions, procedures for the anesthesia of zoo animals—many being of the same species encountered in the wild—can usually be streamlined to reduce much of the stress encountered by their wild counterparts. In the zoo setting, cooperative animals can receive drugs in the same […]
One reason to prefer Spravato, or intranasal ketamine, is that health insurance plans often cover treatment where they will not cover any treatment with racemic ketamine, since most use is considered to be off-label. When you go to a ketamine clinic, IV ketamine infusion therapy is typically not covered by insurance, but the Spravato nasal […]
