Ketamine Therapy FAQs
What is Ketamine Therapy?
Ketamine therapy is an advanced depression treatment that uses controlled, low-dose IV infusions of ketamine to improve mood and reduce symptoms of treatment-resistant depression.
Who can benefit from Ketamine Therapy?
Ketamine therapy is recommended for individuals who:
- Do not respond to conventional depression and anxiety treatment
- Experience severe or persistent depressive symptoms
- Struggle with suicidal thoughts or self-harm tendencies
Is Ketamine Therapy safe?
Yes. At our Ketamine therapy clinic in Pune, treatments are administered under the supervision of an experienced psychiatrist. Patients are monitored throughout the infusion to ensure complete safety and comfort.
How many sessions are required?
Typically, the treatment involves six IV infusions over three weeks. Maintenance sessions may be recommended depending on the patient’s progress and medical needs.
How quickly will I feel results?
Unlike traditional antidepressants that may take weeks, ketamine therapy often shows improvement from Day 1. Many patients report reduced depressive symptoms and better mood within hours to days of the first infusion.
Are there any side effects?
Most patients tolerate ketamine therapy well. Some may experience:
- Mild sedation
- A temporary “dissociative” experience
- Light dizziness or nausea
These effects usually last only 15–20 minutes post-infusion and subside quickly.
Is Ketamine Therapy a long-term cure?
Ketamine therapy provides rapid relief, but depression is a complex condition. Long-term results are best achieved when combined with psychotherapy, lifestyle modifications, and ongoing psychiatric care.
Safe, supervised, and effective — Ketamine infusion therapy offers a faster path to recovery for patients who need more than conventional treatments.
