Infusion Room - Ketamine Centers of Chicago

Upon arrival, you will check in and then be taken back to the private infusion room to begin treatment. You will be comfortably reclining or laying down for the 45 minute duration of the infusion and you will wear a blood pressure cuff and other standard monitors.

After the infusion starts, you will almost immediately feel a little drowsy and will start feeling “free” or “floating”. You will most likely not sleep and we will adjust dosing if you feel agitation or any other untoward feelings (although this is rare.) Once the infusion is over, you will recover for around 30-45 minutes before taking your arranged ride home. Anticipate drowsiness for a few hours after the infusion.

Ketamine Depression Treatment Centers

Your length of response to the infusion will vary from patient to patient but will increase with subsequent treatments. After the first series of six infusions for depression, you may have relief of symptoms for 1-2 months and for as much as 6 months. We will then schedule single booster infusions as needed to control your symptoms.

On treatment day, we recommend no solid food for at least 4 hours and no liquids for 2 hours prior to the infusion. You can bring your own headphones and calming music.
