Ketamine - acute treatments » EEERRRIIICCC

I have a sense that the episodic acute administration (I.V.) of ketamine is more effective than the less acute (I.M.) or chronic (daily) application.

It may be that key neural circuits in the brain must be exposed to paroxysmal administrations of ketamine in order to "shock" the system into functioning more normally. Hopefully, the frequency of treatments can be reduced over time as healthy brain function becomes more persistent. This persistence might be enhanced by administering supportive psychotropics medication. Some people might need this in order to achieve remission.
