“Do You Recommend Ketamine Therapy?”

“How Much Do You Know About Ketamine Therapy?”

Make sure that your doctor can adequately address the following aspects of ketamine:

- Acute physical and psychological effects - Long-term effects - Side effects and after effects

“Would Any Of My Medications Affect Treatment?”

Your doctor should know the medications you are taking, so ask if any of these drugs could affect your treatment.
