New Depression Treatment

While traditional antidepressants take several weeks, if not months, to offer any relief from depression, within just hours of an infusion, IV Ketamine has been proven effective for symptoms of depression. Researcher Elizabeth Ballard, PhD. of the National Institute of Mental Health, notably published a study that found Ketamine to ?reduce suicidal thoughts independent of its effect on depression or anxiety.``

Depression (major depressive disorder or clinical depression) is a common but serious mood disorder. It causes severe symptoms that affect how you feel, think, and handle daily activities, such as sleeping, eating, or working. To be diagnosed with depression, the symptoms must be present for at least two weeks.

Depression is one of the most common mental disorders in the U.S. Current research suggests that depression is caused by a combination of genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological factors.

Ketamine has been found to relieve the symptoms of depression within hours, rather than the usual weeks most antidepressants can take.
