Ketmamine Therapy: Safety and Side Effects

You may ask yourself: is ketamine therapy safe? Is it right for me? At Khrysalis, we want to arm you with knowledge about Ketamine’s efficacy, safety, and potential side effects when deciding if Ketamine Therapy is the right option for you.

Safety First

Patient safety is of paramount importance, and Ketamine Therapy is no exception. Khrysalis’ licensed medical professionals administer ketamine in controlled environments to ensure patient well-being throughout the treatment session.

Understanding Potential Side Effects

Like any medical intervention, Ketamine Therapy may come with potential side effects. However, it’s important to note that adverse effects are typically mild and temporary. Some patients might experience sensations of dissociation, changes in perception, or a feeling of “floating.” These effects usually subside as the therapy session concludes. You may be offered other medications to help with some of the side effects.
