Depression Treatment
Depression is an illness that affects a significant number of people each year, and many of these people struggle to find lasting relief from traditional coping methods. Talk therapy, medication, and holistic treatments can provide some aid, but these methods still leave nearly a third searching for a more permanent and effective solution. Ketamine therapy is a viable treatment option for those struggling with the symptoms of depression. Ketamine treatment for depression might be the option for those who are searching for a treatment option that offers noticeable results in a relatively short time frame. Ketamine is an anesthetic that can provide relief in a fraction of the time it takes antidepressant medication to take effect. In recent studies, it seems that ketamine offers the benefits of traditional antidepressants without the same concern of abuse, and on a much more helpful timeline. In addition to working more quickly and with less risk, ketamine therapy has been shown to last significantly longer than medication does. These benefits make ketamine treatment for depression an attractive choice for those with treatment-resistant depression.
How Ketamine Is Used to Treat Treatment-Resistant Depression
The licensed professionals in our Southlake area offices are able to provide relief from side effects of depression that don’t respond to traditional treatment methods in a non-invasive manner. Ketamine treatment for depression is administered intravenously in a low dose for a period of about 40 minutes. The initial visits will occur over a period of a couple of weeks. Additional visits are scheduled based upon the needs of the individual.
