Frequently Asked Questions
How many Intramuscular Ketamine sessions will I need?
The number of IM ketamine treatments varies from person to person. Your provider will recommend a treatment schedule based on your diagnosis, symptom severity, medical history, and how you respond to therapy. Throughout your care, your progress will be closely monitored, and your treatment plan may be adjusted to help you achieve the best possible results.
Can I drive after receiving an Intramuscular Ketamine treatment?
No. Because IM ketamine may temporarily affect alertness, coordination, and perception, you should arrange for a responsible adult to drive you home after your appointment. Your provider will also advise you to avoid driving, operating machinery, or making important decisions until the following day.
Is Intramuscular Ketamine covered by insurance?
