Ketamine

Ketamine

If it feels like you’ve tried so much to alleviate your depression yet nothing has worked, ketamine very well could be the solution. Administered by our trained professionals in our safe clinical setting, ketamine can provide fast-acting relief for even treatment-resistant depression, Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), suicidal ideation, and more. SPRAVATO, non-invasive and FDA-approved, can help to improve not just your depression but also your quality of life.

Treating Treatment-Resistant Depression

If you’ve tried psychotherapy and medication, yet they haven’t really helped your depression, then you most likely have“Treatment-Resistant Depression,” (TRD). Ketamine can help to lessen the burden of depression in as little as one session, with results that can last. This is not the first treatment that a person should seek for depression. But, if other treatments have not helped, ketamine very well may.

We Can Help You Manage the Side Effects Here on Site

While very effective for depression relief, this nasal inhalant does tend to have side effects. You may feel nauseous, you may hallucinate, feel intoxicated, or other symptoms. Every patient who receives ketamine treatment at Sal Psychiatry stays here for two hours afterward, always monitored by our trained, experienced staff. That way, your symptoms can be managed in a safe, comfortable environment. Then, you can go home when you’re ready, free to experience the benefits of depression relief with the side effects securely managed.

Fast Results

In as little as forty minutes, you could feel your depression lift. Typically, most patients do have to return for multiple sessions to see lasting benefits. When you reach out to us, we’ll devise a tailored treatment plan for your exact, specific needs. That way, you can receive the right ketamine plan for you and no one else. In addition to feeling better mentally, many also report feeling better physically after depression relief. You may sleep better, your eating habits may improve, and experience other benefits from not carrying the symptoms of depression.

Treatment to Fit You

Many opt for ketamine treatment not only because it’s effective, but because they see much better results than other methods in much less time. For example, other forms of antidepressants, for them to be their most effective, they have to build up on your body over time. Ketamine, on the other hand, not only works very quickly but it continues to do so even once your body has metabolized it. Instead of having to take a daily dose (which many SSRIs, among other antidepressants, require) ketamine sessions can be far less frequent. Every treatment plan is different for every patient, but many ketamine plans include six sessions or so within a three to four-week time frame.

A Typical Ketamine Session at Sal Psychiatry

Once you arrive and you’re checked in, an experienced member of our staff will make sure you’re cozy and comfy. Then, they’ll monitor you while you use the inhalant three times. They’ll make sure you’re OK, that you’re taking the proper amount of time between each use, (which is typically five minutes). Then, a member of our staff will sit with you, watching over you to make sure that you’re taken care of should there be any side effects. Once they determine you’re ready, you can go home with real depression relief.
