At least that's what most of the infusion clinics are saying. Same with Lamictal.A friend of mine *requires* Lamictal to obtain a full response to intranasal ketamine.
Isn't a 150 mg dose of ketamine substantially higher than what is currently recommended for sublingual administration? You can take too much ketamine such that it has no therapeutic effect for depression or anxiety. That's why the I.V. recommendation is so exacting. John H. Krystal at Yale explains this.
