Our Accreditations and Licensure

Understanding Ketamine Addiction

Ketamine is an anesthetic medication, primarily used to treat pain and treatment-resistant mental health disorders. However, illicit use is also common due to the dissociative and hallucinogenic effects of ketamine. Ketamine is highly addictive, and both prescription and illegal use often result in ketamine dependence and addiction. While ketamine use is low compared to other substances such as opioids, recent use has increased in the US and globally.

Substance abuse greatly impacts your well-being, causing both short-term and long-term consequences of physical and mental health issues. We understand the need for an addiction treatment program that can help you rebuild wellness after ketamine dependence.

Signs of Ketamine Addiction

If you or your loved one is struggling with addiction, symptoms in physical health, mood, and behavior will be present. Recognizing the signs of ketamine addiction allows you to seek the help you need.

How Ketamine Use Affects Mood and Behavior

Ketamine use in a medical setting overseen by medical professionals causes rapid changes in mood and behavior, resulting in decreased mental health symptoms, including depression symptoms and suicidal ideation. However, drug abuse and illicit ketamine use often cause dissociation, confusion, agitation, paranoia, and panic attacks.

Long-term use causes memory and cognitive issues and mood swings. Additionally, substance use disorders include behavioral changes, such as increased secrecy and a drastic difference in behavior when using and not using ketamine. Loved ones commonly notice changes in interests, a lack of ability to take care of personal or professional responsibilities, and financial strain related to drug use.

How Ketamine Use Affects the Body

Ketamine acts on the central nervous system (CNS), reducing pain and increasing heart rate, blood pressure, and cardiac output. While ketamine reduces pain and has an anesthetic effect, it preserves respiratory function, which is why it is commonly used over opioids, benzodiazepines, and other pain management drugs and anesthetics.

Long-term ketamine use increases the risk of bladder damage, gastrointestinal distress, liver damage, and cardiovascular side effects.

Why Detox Is a Critical First Step in Treating Ketamine Addiction

Due to the addictive nature of ketamine, dependence is common. Physical dependence is often a result of ketamine misuse, but it can also occur as a result of prescription ketamine use. Detox is an important first step in drug rehab. Through detox, patients recover mental and emotional capacity that allows rehab programs to be more effective. We offer a model of care that incorporates detox and drug addiction treatments that focus on long-term physical and emotional recovery.

Our Supportive Medical Detox & Stabilization for Ketamine Addiction

Medical detox offers a high level of support through personalized care and around-the-clock medical supervision. Addiction specialists provide ongoing support through cravings and withdrawal symptoms.

Individualized Treatment Planning

We understand that every patient’s experience of ketamine addiction is unique, and we offer personalized treatment plans to accommodate individual needs. As patients go through detox, their needs change, and we offer ongoing assessment and adjustments to ensure all needs are met along their path to recovery.

24/7 Medical Oversight With Expert Clinicians

Ketamine detox often results in withdrawal symptoms that can range from uncomfortable to life-threatening. We offer medical oversight from expert clinicians who help reduce symptoms and manage cravings through detox.

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for Ketamine Withdrawal Symptoms

We offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) that reduces withdrawal symptoms and cravings. MAT is a valuable tool that helps protect patients from life-threatening symptoms and provides an opportunity for individuals to heal from root causes and build effective coping skills for lasting change.

Trauma-Informed Care

We understand that trauma impacts mental health and increases the risk of substance abuse and addiction. Our rehab programs offer trauma-informed care, providing a safe and supportive space to process trauma and improve coping skills.

Structure Of Our Ketamine Detox Program

Detox at Wellbridge is highly structured, offering daily programming that seamlessly incorporates MAT, trauma-informed care, and support, making the transition into treatment programs smooth and simple. Detox typically lasts 3-10 days. However, the length of stay in detox varies depending on individual needs.
