Ketamine is being used as an “off-label” treatment for a variety of chronic mental health issues and chronic pain when other treatment options have failed. The latest treatment is for anyone across the Pacific Northwest who has been suffering from persistent symptoms or experiencing newer symptoms with little or no relief from existing treatments.
The FDA has approved the use of ketamine for anesthesia because it works well to sedate people and eliminates pain during treatment. It is also the only legal psychedelic medicine available for treatment of emotional distress. In recent years, ketamine has also gained popularity as an off-label solution for treatment-resistant depression (TRD).
Before administering ketamine therapy, Dr. Silva conducts a thorough interview with the patient to assess if they are eligible. He goes over details such as the patient’s medical history, and medical/psychiatric records, and can also administer brief psychological tests to assess the patient’s state of mind.
Once a patient has been approved for treatment, Dr. Silva proceeds by administering ketamine in lower, sub-anesthetic doses to address depression, pain, or any other mental disorders. Ketamine therapy can be delivered intravenously, intramuscularly (IM), orally, and intranasally for therapeutic purposes.
It can work with other pain procedures, medications, counseling, and many patients see results after a single treatment. According to Dr. Silva, under the right circumstances, ketamine therapy can be a potent and effective alternative to medications like NSAIDs and opiates.
