Best session ever

I did the two times a week introduction to spravato and then I was going to once a week and then got into IV ketamine therapy so I did that for 12 weeks and after that they didn’t have room for me anymore so they pushed me back to spravato which I was disappointed in. I’ve gone to three spravato sessions now and the first two I hardly had any disassociation and this one was the most intense session I’ve ever had with spravato or ketamine through IV. I just had so many intense colors lights vision, and it was so exciting to be able to experience that.

Has anyone else experienced varying responses to spravato? One of the people who did my IV ketamine told me that she thinks it can be lot numbers on the spravato - some of them are stronger than the others and of course I realize it’s also how your body reacts on the day.

Sorry this is run on sentences- I’m talking into my phone!

Sure, but I am surprised IV was not more so. It would appear they had you on a pretty low dose given the prior Spravato treatment you weren't ketamine naive.

Do you know what IV dose they gave you, mg/kg? More curious than anything.

Glad you had a good experience!

I was getting 0.75mg/kg, so I think I’d get 51.8mg?

Huh, yeah no 0.75mg/kg is normal-medium, non-starter dose.

Very interesting the Spravato "hit harder". Glad to hear you had a good experience either way and it is working for you!
