How To Bring Up Ketamine Infusions With Your Doctor

You’ve read up about ketamine. Maybe you have a friend or acquaintance who's gotten better thanks to ketamine. You’re ready to try ketamine infusions and you want to talk to your doctor but not sure how to go about it without getting an immediate dismissal. Well we got you covered and have a suggestion on how to bring up ketamine treatments with your doctor. 

We don't know all of the causes of mental health problems, or why certain treatments work or don't. But mental health research shows that relieving significant distress, saves lives and improves quality of life. And ketamine is proving to be an effective treatment.

Ketamine For Mood Disorders Is New

Ketamine is actually an old drug, however, it is currently being used off-label to treat depression, PTSD, anxiety, and chronic pain conditions. Using ketamine in this way may be considered to be outside of mainstream traditional medicine by some doctors. The evidence and efficacy of ketamine is so cutting edge and new, if you doctor isn’t keeping up-to-date we are pretty sure they don’t know ketamine is an option. Learn more about ketamine’s history here at our blog.

Medical knowledge is every evolving. What doctors used to think as a particular type of treatment, even a few years ago, might actually be considered the best innovative thing today.

Show Them The Evidence

Even though many doctors may not know about ketamine, one of the cool things about doctors is that their education has taught them to practice evidence-based medicine. This means that when someone comes in scientific evidence they are able to look at the data and are ready to start using a new treatment. A good start is providing your physician the latest evidence. You can do this by printing out an article, sending them an email to an article, or forwarding them our blog posts or videos. Below are some resources you can check out and share:

Sometimes research has proved that a treatment works, but doctors have been slow to start using it. They often decided how to treat patients using only their own judgement and experience.

Doctors Don’t Like Change

Everyone gets set in their ways and doctors sometimes get into a practice pattern of just doing what they have always done. Plus doctors are notorious for being slow to change their minds (did you know they took a lot of convincing to start washing their hands? Learn more here). So if that's the case with your physician, accept this fact and consider finding a different doctor if you are really serious about pursuing ketamine infusions.
