Conditions Treated
Treatments Offered at Anesthesia Consultants of the Upper Valley
IV Infusion
IV ketamine infusion delivers a carefully measured dose of ketamine directly into the bloodstream through an intravenous line. A typical mental-health session lasts 40–60 minutes; chronic-pain protocols often run longer, up to two hours. Patients recline in a monitored clinical environment with vital signs tracked throughout. Most treatment courses involve a series of six infusions over two to three weeks, followed by periodic maintenance sessions depending on individual response.
Sublingual
Sublingual ketamine dissolves under the tongue, allowing absorption through the oral mucosa without an IV line. This format enables at-home use for appropriately screened patients who have completed an intake evaluation and been trained in the protocol. Sessions typically last 45–75 minutes. Because the medication is taken without direct clinical supervision, sublingual programs require regular remote check-ins with a prescribing provider to track response and adjust dosing.

What to Expect on Your First Visit
Most clinics ask new patients to complete a health questionnaire and a brief phone or video intake before scheduling the first in-person session. You'll be asked about your psychiatric and medical history, current medications, and prior treatment history. Certain medications — especially stimulants, lamotrigine, and some benzodiazepines — may need to be adjusted beforehand, so allow time for that conversation.
On your first treatment day, plan to stay two to three hours and arrange a ride home: you cannot drive after a ketamine infusion. The clinical team will explain the procedure, establish IV access, and adjust the room lighting and music to support a calm environment. During the infusion you may notice dissociation, altered perception, or a dreamlike state — these are expected and temporary.
