Chrysalis Ketamine is aware of the recent surge in U.S. depression diagnoses, with Gallup reporting a new high of 29%. Of these individuals, research indicates that as many as 30% will experience treatment-resistant depression (TRD), contributing to feelings of hopelessness and despair. With this in mind, Chrysalis Ketamine is now offering ketamine IV infusions for the treatment of TRD, where other, more traditional, anti-depressant medication has failed.
Unlike conventional SSRIs, Chrysalis Ketamine’s IV therapy offers almost instantaneous relief from the symptoms of depression. By directly targeting the neurotransmitter glutamate, ketamine allows new brain connections to grow, helping to regulate your mood. “This is remarkably different from conventional antidepressants, which initially boost serotonin activity levels in several different areas of the brain to ultimately affect glutamate,” explains Dr. Karpanian from Chrysalis Ketamine. For this reason, ketamine can provide symptomatic relief within hours of your initial infusion.
Symptoms of depression will vary from patient to patient but often include persistent feelings of hopelessness, frequent bouts of tearfulness, fatigue, and changes in appetite. As reported by Dr. Karpanian, approximately 70% of patients report a noticeable change in their depressive symptoms after their first ketamine IV infusion, with the effects lasting from hours to weeks.
To reap the full benefits of ketamine IV therapy, Dr. Karpanian recommends a holistic approach. “Good social support, supplemental and complementary therapy from your therapist or psychiatrist along with good sleep, diet, and exercise are very important,” he says.
Chrysalis Ketamine primarily offers ketamine infusion therapy for the management of TRD, where at least two different antidepressant medications have failed. However, they also utilize ketamine for the treatment of many other mental health conditions including anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and OCD.
You can now schedule a consultation with Dr. Karpanian via Chrysalis Ketamine’s website to discuss your condition and individual needs. Dr. Karpanian has over 10 years of experience administering high-dose ketamine to electroconvulsive therapy patients. For this reason, he is well-informed on any side effects that could occur and can answer any patient inquiries before treatment.
