A new double blinded study published in the American Journal of Psychiatry shows that Ketamine is an effective new option for Chronic PTSD.
“Repeated intravenous (IV) ketamine infusions may significantly reduce the severity of symptoms in individuals with chronic post-traumatic stress disorder”
“The treatment displayed rapid symptom improvements and was generally safe and well-tolerated by patients with chronic PTSD. It is the first randomized controlled trial of repeated ketamine administration for chronic PTSD.”
“Dennis S. Charney, MD, and colleagues said. ‘PTSD is an extremely debilitating condition and we are pleased that our discovery may lead to a treatment option for so many who are in need of relief from their suffering.’”
