Your Treatment: What to Expect at Charleston Ketamine Center Before recommending ketamine treatments, an expert team member at Charleston Ketamine Center will assess your suitability for ketamine therapy. If you're determined to be a good candidate, a treatment plan—which typically begins with the administration of six infusions within a two-week period—is created. Infusions themselves take place in a comfortable environment and last for about an hour. Some patients report out-of-body sensations, mild hallucinations, or other side effects, but these usually disappear soon after the infusion ends. Throughout the process, patients are monitored by one of the clinic's highly-trained staff. There is a 30 minute recovery time. After the initial series of six infusions, Charleston Ketamine Center recommends a single infusion after one week, then a single infusion two weeks after that at which time at home nasal ketamine is prescribed. Who is this treatment for? Those who have not been helped by conventional treatment strategies have another option with ketamine treatments at Charleston Ketamine Center.
