Ketamine Infusion Or Oral? Which Is Better For Depression And Pain?

A small correction to my live stream: not every milligram of medication given in an IV will reach the brain, as there are some losses throughout the body. Nonetheless, IV administration is considered the gold standard with regards to bioavailability (100%) and precision of administration.

However, it is not always the right treatment for every individual. Such a discussion requires deep discussion with an expert who does not just recommend their own treatments!
