IV Ketamine Infusion Clinics

Ketamine delivered through an IV drip under medical supervision — the most studied form for treatment-resistant depression and chronic pain. 502 listed clinics offer this treatment across 49 states.

How IV Ketamine Infusion Works

IV ketamine infusion delivers a carefully calculated dose of ketamine directly into the bloodstream through an intravenous drip, typically over 40–60 minutes. Because dosing can be adjusted minute-by-minute and absorption is complete, IV infusion is the most studied delivery method in ketamine research for treatment-resistant depression, and it is also used in longer protocols for chronic pain conditions such as CRPS and fibromyalgia.

Treatment usually starts with an induction series — commonly six infusions over two to three weeks — followed by maintenance (booster) infusions spaced weeks or months apart based on response. Patients are monitored throughout each session, with blood pressure checks and a recovery period before leaving; someone else must drive you home.

What to Expect at Your Appointment

After screening and consent, you'll settle into a reclined chair in a private or semi-private room, an IV line is placed, and the infusion runs for roughly 40 minutes for mood protocols (longer for pain). Most clinics dim the lights and offer eye masks and music. Dissociative effects fade within an hour; plan on 90 minutes to two hours per visit.

IV Ketamine Infusion — Frequently Asked Questions

How many IV ketamine infusions will I need?

Most clinics start with an induction series of about six infusions over two to three weeks, then reassess. Patients who respond often continue with single maintenance infusions every few weeks to months. The exact schedule is set by the treating clinician.

Is IV ketamine covered by insurance?

Usually not — IV ketamine for depression is an off-label use, so most clinics are cash-pay for the infusion, though some bill insurance for the associated office visits. Spravato (esketamine) is the insurance-covered alternative for treatment-resistant depression.

How fast does IV ketamine work for depression?

Some patients report improvement within hours to days of the first infusions — much faster than oral antidepressants — but response varies, and clinicians generally assess after the full induction series.
