New Study for Ketamine Depression Treatment

Online, September 10, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Depression comes in many forms. For some, it can be a sensation of feeling down or a little hopeless, and may pass within a short space of time. For others, it may be a much longer lasting effect, requiring help in the form of anti-depressant drugs to control symptoms and recover. However, for some, depression is a much more serious condition, and can debilitate and affect quality of life to a drastic degree. For these people, anti-depressant drugs may simply not work, and because we are all individual, what works for one person, may not necessarily work for another. Anti-depressants are also famous for taking their time to kick in, and after a long period of time, certain sufferers may see no benefit.

This is where other treatments come into play, and can have a drastic and positive effect on day to day life and state of mind.

Ketamine or Special K is a drug well-known for its recreational usage, however when used in the properly prescribed manner, it can be hugely beneficial for depression sufferers.

A recent survey attempted to measure the effectiveness of Ketamine, and proved that this powerful substance really does offer massive hope to those who have seen no benefit from other treatments. Of course, like any drug, Ketamine does have its side effects, and should only ever be used in a controlled manner, under the watchful eye of a medical professional.

A study by the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, as well as the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai has shown that within a 24 hour time period, out of 73 patients with known hard to treat depression, a quarter noticed a temporary reduction in the severity of their depressive symptoms. That is a huge amount, and offers serious hope for many individuals.

Depression need not take over your life completely, and help really is at hand.
