How long does a mood infusion last?

Patients typically receive a series of 6 infusions over the course of approximately two weeks for mood disorders. Each infusion typically lasts about 45-55 minutes.

Is pain protocol higher than mood protocol?

For the pain protocol, the patient is given a 3 hour infusion of Ketamine. Also, the dosage is significantly higher than for the mood disorder protocol. Due to this increase in dosage, patients tend to get some more side-effects (nausea, dizziness, longer disassociation) compared to the depression protocol. This being said, our patients tend to do very well with our pain protocols.
