The update helps people with depression overcome their challenges more easily. IV ketamine infusions offer fast relief for people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, and chronic pain.

The infusion center recommends this IV ketamine therapy to people whose depression is resistant to treatment. Patients with a history of dangerous ideation are good candidates for this treatment since it can quickly calm them down.

The clinic’s physician-approved treatments have provided relief for countless patients over the years. According to some studies, ketamine has been shown to reduce symptoms of depression by 70-80%.

Depression is a complicated condition that can be triggered by a variety of factors. Thrive IV’s ketamine infusions can help with postpartum depression and treatment-resistant depression.

According to the IV infusion center, postpartum depression occurs in roughly 20% of new mothers. This type of depression, however, is not as easily diagnosed since the main symptoms – exhaustion, lack of sleep, and changes in appetite – can be attributed to taking care of a newborn.

All types of depression can be considered “treatment-resistant” if the patient’s symptoms did not get better after trying at least one anti-depressant for the prescribed duration. This can happen to up to 30% of the patients diagnosed with depression. At Thrive IV, ketamine infusions are prescribed only to those who fit this category.

The clinic’s doctors create personalized treatment plans for every patient. For depression, patients are usually started on six ketamine infusions over 2-3 weeks. Each session takes about 40 minutes, followed by a recovery period of 20 minutes. Patients are encouraged to bring a blanket and some headphones to make the session more comfortable.

At Thrive IV, all sessions are overseen by a team of doctors and medical professionals to ensure the safety and comfort of each patient. The infusions are coupled with vitamins and supplements to maximize the effect of the medication and minimize side effects.

“Ketamine may be the missing puzzle piece you’ve been searching for to help heal your brain and make you feel your best,” a spokesperson for the center said.
