How does ketamine treat suicidal thoughts?
Ketamine produces quick results, and is one of the best options for patients with suicidal thoughts.
By comparison, ketamine often takes effect within 24 hours of your first infusion. The medication quickly makes its way to your brain, where it directly restores levels of a brain chemical called glutamate.
As ketamine balances glutamate levels, most patients experience rapid improvements in suicidal thoughts and accompanying conditions like depression and anxiety.
What should I expect during ketamine infusion therapy?
We administer ketamine using intravenous (IV) infusions. During your infusion, our experienced medical team monitors your heart rate and blood pressure while you relax in a comfortable reclining chair.
You’ll receive a series of six treatments over about two weeks. Though you may feel better after your first treatment, the extended treatment produces longer-lasting results.
If you have suicidal thoughts, don’t wait any longer to get treatment. Call MindPeace Clinics, or schedule an appointment online today.
