you know, when I look at the studies on ketamine, it appeared that, um, you know, this was like

incredibly efficacious, very few contraindications to other medicines and, uh, and also too, it seems

to, you know, work very, very quickly, which is, which, which is great. Um, so because of that,

you know, I started prescribing for, for my patients. A lot of the studies on ketamine will be with,

say like IV infusions. So the way that I do it, I actually do it, um, with, with capsules orally.

So it's a very, very low, low dose. So, you know, with, with ketamine, I find like, in the classical

sense, I mean, this is changing now, but a lot of people sort of use it as almost like a macrodose

of like a psychedelic where like they'll, you know, do an injection and then they'll sort of,

you know, kind of get the benefits of that and then hope that it'll, you know, last a long time.

And for some people, you know, they, they may just be going through a difficult period and maybe

they just need that one blast to kind of rip them out of it and, and they can kind of, you know,

get back to normal functioning. Um, but for other people, you know, uh, unfortunately that, that just

doesn't always, always happens. So having like a small amount that's like continuous is what I do.

So some of my patients will take it, uh, once a week, some will take it, you know,

last once a month, but I have other patients that take it, you know, two or three times a week,

just just a low dose. Um, and that seems to be, you know, incredibly efficacious overall for,

for treating depression.
