Spravato® (a form of esketamine) is approved by the FDA for treatment resistant depression. When delivered in other forms, ketamine is used “off label” meaning that the FDA has not approved its use to treat mental health conditions. Ketamine is a Scheduled III substance and a prescription is required to obtain it from a licensed medical professional with an appropriate Drug Enforcement Agency License number.

Common side of ketamine effects of ketamine include dizziness, nausea and vomiting. Ketamine raises heart rate and blood pressure, which can increase the risk of stroke or heart attack. People under the influence of ketamine may have difficulty standing up and be confused about their surroundings. Ketamine can cause vivid dreams or hallucinations, which may be intense and terrifying, and a feeling like the mind is separated from the body. Ketamine has been reported to cause apnea and respiratory depression as well as laryngospasm. Like all anesthetics, ketamine prevents users from feeling pain and, if injury occurs, a person may not know it. Frequent use of ketamine may cause bladder problems. Ketamine can cause psychosis and seizures. Ketamine can be addictive and has a risk for abuse and physical and psychological dependence. The side effects above are not the only effects that you may experience. In addition, there can be various other side effects including, in rare cases, death.
