Infusion Therapy for Chronic Pain (Ketamine, Lidocaine & Magnesium) Overview:
Infusion therapy is a medical treatment that involves administering medications or other substances through a vein (intravenous or IV) over some time. Ketamine, lidocaine, and magnesium are three substances that may be used in infusion therapy to treat various medical conditions.
Ketamine is a medication that is primarily used as an anesthetic, but it is also being studied for its potential to treat depression and other mental health conditions. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic that is used to numb a specific area of the body, such as the mouth or skin. Magnesium is a mineral that is important for many bodily functions, including muscle function and bone health.
Infusion therapy with ketamine, lidocaine, and magnesium may treat various conditions, including chronic pain, depression, and heart arrhythmias. The treatment plan will depend on the patient’s needs and the treatment condition.
Infusion therapy is typically administered in a hospital or outpatient clinic setting. The length of treatment will depend on the specific condition being treated and the substances being used. Infusion therapy is generally considered safe, but as with any medical treatment, there are potential risks and complications, such as infection and allergic reactions. It is essential for patients to discuss the potential benefits and risks of infusion therapy with their healthcare provider before starting treatment.
