Treatment-resistant depression (TRD) is a term most commonly used in clinical psychiatry to describe cases of depressive disorders, such as Major Depressive Disorder and Bipolar Disorders, that do not respond adequately to at least two antidepressants. In the last 20 years, research has consistently shown that low doses of ketamine, administered intravenously, can rapidly relieve depressive symptoms in patients whose depression has been otherwise resistant to treatment.
Ketamine infusion therapy has been shown to be very effective on the following types of depression:
All of our staff in the Complete Ketamine Solutions organization recognizes that every patient is unique and that individual responses to ketamine infusions will vary. Ketamine infusion therapy has positioned itself as the most effective treatment to enter the mental health arena in over 50 years.
Some patients may experience immense relief after one infusion, most will experience relief after the 3rd or 4th infusion, while others may notice their depressive symptoms subside up to 7 - 10 days following their treatment.
Ketamine infusion treatment at Complete Ketamine Solutions' clinics will initially consist of 3/1-hour infusions and 3/2-hour infusions over the course of 14 - 18 days. Within this time frame, our team will work with you to monitor the efficacy of each treatment, provide you with support, and collaborate with your primary mental health provider (if you so choose) to assist you in achieving the greatest possible outcome.
Following your initial treatment regimen, one of our care team specialists will follow up with you and your primary mental health provider to monitor your depressive symptoms and determine if there is a need for maintenance infusions.
Complete Ketamine Solutions' infusions have an efficacy rate of 80% or higher, and so the vast majority of our patients receive a life-changing experience from our treatments.
