Why Choose IV for Ketamine Treatment?

Описание: There are many ways to administer ketamine to the body, but the best way to do it is through an IV.

Bioavailability (the percentage of medication that is available to be absorbed by the body) and the rate of absorption can make a big difference in the way that a patient experiences ketamine treatment. For these reasons, some forms of ketamine administration are better than others.

We review why IV ketamine is the standard for ketamine research and treatment, how intramuscular injections work, what an IV catheter is, and why IVs aren't as scary as they might seem.
