Ketamine treatment
Ketamine has been studied for treatment-resistant depression. A 2023 randomized trial compared IV ketamine with ECT in adults with nonpsychotic treatment-resistant major depression; its findings do not apply automatically to psychotic depression, every patient or every route. FDA-approved Spravato is esketamine, a different medication and administration program.

Treatment information
Patients considering these therapies should also be mindful of regulatory information. The FDA has published vital guidance regarding off-label compounding, which can be reviewed in their warning about potential risks associated with compounded ketamine products.
Travel logistics from Paulding County require careful consideration. The commute to nearby clinics involves navigating metro Atlanta’s surrounding traffic, which can fluctuate wildly. Additionally, patients should anticipate Georgia’s weather variables—such as intense summer heat and sudden thunderstorms—which may slow down travel and necessitate leaving Hiram earlier than expected.
At present, there are no specialized ketamine or Spravato centers operating directly within Hiram. Patients seeking these therapies typically travel outside of Paulding County to nearby areas, such as Marietta, where clinical providers offer supervised intravenous infusions and certified esketamine nasal spray treatments.
Spravato (esketamine) is an FDA-approved prescription nasal spray intended for adults diagnosed with treatment-resistant depression. It is also approved for treating depressive symptoms in adults presenting with acute suicidal ideation or behavior, always used in conjunction with a daily oral antidepressant medication.
No, patients are prohibited from driving themselves home after receiving Spravato or intravenous ketamine therapy. The medication's side effects include significant sedation. A reliable friend or family member must accompany you to the clinic and safely drive you back to Hiram once observation concludes.
Spravato is a patented esketamine nasal spray with formal FDA approval for certain forms of adult depression. Off-label ketamine therapy typically involves intravenous (IV) or intramuscular (IM) administration of generic ketamine. While frequently utilized for psychiatric care, these IV formulations lack formal FDA approval for depression.
Generally, major health insurance providers do not cover the cost of off-label intravenous or intramuscular ketamine for psychiatric conditions. Patients should anticipate paying entirely out-of-pocket for these specific formulations and are advised to request a comprehensive, written estimate from the clinic prior to scheduling.
While telehealth may be utilized for psychiatric evaluations, Spravato is never shipped to a patient's home and requires supervised, in-clinic administration. Some clinicians prescribe off-label compounded ketamine for home use, but the FDA strongly warns against this practice due to the safety risks of unmonitored administration.
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 Hiram 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.
