Dr. David Feifel at UCSD Medical Center is using ketamine NOW to treat depression. A single IV infusion of ketamine alleviates depression for about a week. At UCSD, they're giving multiple infusions of ketamine over several weeks, hoping that this will have long-lasting benefits.
A video (and a transcript) of Dr. Feifel discussing the use of ketamine for depression is at this site:
