Ketamine Therapy in Kingwood

Ketamine is an FDA-approved, powerful anesthetic that was developed more than 50 years ago. It has not yet been FDA-approved for the treatment of psychiatric disorders and chronic pain, making it an off-label treatment option.

Ketamine has a good safety profile and has been used widely as an anesthetic in emergency medicine and in operating rooms and wound clinics around the world on a daily basis. It is often used for the most fragile patients, including children and the elderly, because of its safe profile.

Since the year 2000, ketamine has been found to be a valuable and highly effective treatment for depression, anxiety, various mood disorders, and certain pain disorders. It works at the receptor level to stimulate and preserve neurons, a key effect that reduces symptoms associated with mood disorders, PTSD, and chronic pain.

Ketamine is safe only when administered by a medical professional. Like with any pharmaceutical drug, unsupervised, casual/street use is dangerous and never recommended, even when self-medicating.

When administered properly and under the right supervision, ketamine has been used extensively for anesthesia every day. It has been used safely in millions of patients for over 50 years. Extensive medical studies have demonstrated IV ketamine therapy to greatly and safely improve symptoms of severe depression, bipolar depression, anxiety, PTSD, and chronic pain conditions.

It is 1 of only 2 anesthetics listed by the World Health Organization (WHO) as an “essential drug,” meaning that it satisfies the healthcare needs of the majority of the population. This classification dictates that essential drugs should be available at all times in appropriate amounts and dosage forms at a price the community can afford.

The WHO is a specialized agency of the United Nations concerned with international public health.
