What are the benefits of ketamine?

Ketamine offers a unique approach to treating depression and anxiety compared to traditional selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) like Prozac. By blocking N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptors, ketamine facilitates neuroplasticity, which is the brain’s ability to heal and form new connections. The effects of ketamine on the brain can be rapid and profound, relieving anxiety and depression, and helping to create healthier thought patterns.
