Ketamine, a medication typically used for the induction and maintenance of anesthesia, has recently been shown to be a potentially effective treatment for chronic pain and mental health conditions. If you have been researching ketamine therapy and are wondering if it may be right for you, keep reading to see if ketamine treatment is a potential fit for treating your condition.
WHAT IS KETAMINE ADMINISTERED FOR?
Ketamine is typically prescribed for people suffering from chronic pain or mental health disorders resistant to other forms of treatment. This can include nerve conditions, unknown chronic pain, fibromyalgia, treatment-resistant depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), bipolar disorder, and more. It can also be prescribed even if other treatments have not been attempted first. There may be other conditions that could benefit from ketamine therapy as well. Be sure to talk to your doctor to discuss if ketamine therapy may help treat your health condition.
WHO SHOULD NOT TAKE KETAMINE?
As with any medical treatment, ketamine treatment is not a one size fits all experience. Since ketamine causes some disassociation, it is not recommended for people with psychotic disorders. Additionally, those suffering from seizures or being treated for asthma are not recommended to try ketamine therapy. Patients with a heart condition, such as high blood pressure, cardiac disease, or pulmonary deficiencies, may require additional treatment before starting ketamine therapy. If you’re not sure if ketamine therapy is right for you, talk to your doctor to discuss your unique situation and the risks and benefits of ketamine therapy for your situation.
