Ketamine And Depression

  • Ketamine-assisted therapy has the strongest evidence for major depressive disorder and treatment-resistant depression, beginning with early randomized trials at the National Institute of Mental Health (Berman et al., 2000; Zarate et al., 2006) demonstrating rapid antidepressant effects, followed by large Phase 3 trials leading to FDA approval of esketamine by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2019.

  • Additional randomized studies, including work at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, support benefits for acute suicidal ideation and PTSD, with emerging evidence for anxiety and substance use disorders.

Psilocybin And Depression
