About

A study aimed to assess the efficacy of the various approaches to prescribing Ketamine currently in use off-label. The focus will be to include ketamine within the study plan of those with chronic conditions who are receiving ketamine.

Full description

Ketamine can be administered in multiple ways (IV, IM, SubQ, and Sublingual, among others), and there have been few if any, studies that have compared the impact of Ketamine at home without any thearpy.

The study will identify other treatment modalities used in concurrence with Ketamine. Psychotherapy, music therapy, and acutherapy are some of the most popular. How do these adjunct therapies affect the outcomes of Ketamine treatments?

Secondarily, the study will focus on these significant issues to observe the impact of Ketamine treatments and suicidal ideation. Suicidal ideation is multifaceted and is one reason for prescribing off-label Ketamine. Chronic issues such as depression, pain, and anxiety have been identified as underlying causes and may be improvable with Ketamine.
