Oral Ketamine / Troches Clinics

Dissolvable ketamine lozenges taken by mouth, prescribed for in-office or supervised at-home protocols. 34 listed clinics offer this treatment across 17 states.

How Oral Ketamine / Troches Works

Oral ketamine is prescribed as troches (dissolvable lozenges), rapid-dissolve tablets, or liquid, compounded by a pharmacy for each patient. Held in the mouth and absorbed through the cheek and gums, oral ketamine produces gentler, longer effects than IV or IM routes and is the form used in most ketamine-assisted psychotherapy and at-home programs.

In-office protocols use troches during supervised or therapy-paired sessions; some clinics also prescribe low-dose take-home regimens between visits. Because absorption varies more than injectable routes, clinicians titrate dose over the first sessions.

What to Expect at Your Appointment

You'll hold the troche in your mouth for 10–15 minutes while it dissolves, usually reclined with an eye mask in clinic or at home per your protocol. Effects build over 20–30 minutes and taper within one to two hours. The same no-driving rule applies after dosing.

Oral Ketamine / Troches — Frequently Asked Questions

Is oral ketamine as strong as an infusion?

Oral bioavailability is much lower than IV, so blood levels are gentler for the same milligram amount. Clinics choose oral routes for tolerability, therapy pairing, and at-home continuity rather than maximum intensity.

Can I get ketamine troches without visiting a clinic?

Only through a licensed prescriber after evaluation — usually via a telehealth platform or clinic with a supervised at-home protocol. Buying ketamine any other way is illegal and dangerous.

How should troches be stored?

As controlled substances: locked, away from children, per the pharmacy's storage instructions. Clinics review safe-handling rules before prescribing take-home doses.
