Ketamine treatment
Ketamine is not FDA-approved specifically for anxiety disorders. Evidence is smaller and more preliminary than the depression literature, and depression findings should not be presented as proof of anxiety treatment effectiveness. Established psychological and medication treatments remain part of a clinician-led assessment.

Yes, there are local options within Columbia for this therapy. For example, Springs Health LLC operates an office in the city, and its website lists Spravato treatment. Patients can consult with this clinic or explore regional alternatives in central Maryland to find the right therapeutic fit.
Intravenous (IV) ketamine is administered off-label for depression and is typically not covered by commercial health insurance. Patients usually pay out-of-pocket for these specific treatments. Always request a detailed, written estimate from your chosen healthcare provider before starting therapy to understand all associated costs.
Spravato administration mandates a two-hour clinical observation period to monitor for potential side effects, such as sedation or dissociation, as well as changes in blood pressure. This FDA-required safety protocol ensures that you are medically stable before being discharged into the care of a responsible adult.
No, you are strictly prohibited from driving until the day after your Spravato treatment, following a restful night of sleep. The medication temporarily impairs judgment and coordination, so you must arrange for a responsible adult to drive you home from the clinic after your observation period.
Spravato is never administered at home; it requires a certified medical setting. While some providers prescribe compounded ketamine for off-label home use, these medications are not FDA-approved for psychiatric care. The FDA warns against using compounded ketamine without professional on-site monitoring due to potential safety risks.
Treatment protocols usually begin with an intensive phase requiring visits twice a week for the first few weeks, followed by a transition to weekly or bi-weekly maintenance sessions. Because protocols vary based on clinical assessment, patients should prepare for a significant initial time and travel commitment.
Costs, coverage & aftercare
IV, IM and compounded ketamine for psychiatric conditions are off-label; many programs are self-pay. Ask about assessment, medication, administration, monitoring, therapy and maintenance charges separately. We do not assume a statewide price.
Spravato is FDA-approved esketamine, not the same as ketamine infusions. Coverage is not guaranteed. Check eligibility, prior authorization, network status, drug and visit charges, deductibles and copays with your insurer and clinic.
Spravato requires a certified healthcare setting and monitoring for at least two hours. Arrange transport home; do not drive until the next day after restful sleep. For other ketamine treatments, follow your clinician's instructions. Follow-up and maintenance depend on response and tolerability.
Ask who manages your medications, how your usual clinician will receive updates, and whom to contact between visits. Neither a shortage designation nor local depression statistics show that ketamine is appropriate or effective for you. Consult a licensed physician.
Use these questions when you call or book a consultation with any Columbia provider.
Ask whether a physician, psychiatrist or anesthesiologist oversees each session and who you can reach afterward.
A good clinic reviews your history, medications, blood pressure and past treatments before recommending ketamine.
Look for continuous vital-sign monitoring and a calm, private recovery space.
IV infusions, Spravato® nasal spray, IM or sublingual options suit different goals and budgets.
Ask how the clinic coordinates with your therapist or offers integration support between sessions.
Request a written estimate for the first series and any maintenance sessions before you start.
