KETAMINE FOR CANCER PAIN MANAGEMENT

Research published in Pain Medicine shows that ketamine is a safe and effective treatment for cancer-related neuropathic pain. More than 70% of patients respond positively to ketamine for cancer pain, and experience improved function and mobility for an average of 3-weeks after their initial series of ketamine infusions. Especially for patients who fail to respond to over-the-counter or opioid painkillers, ketamine therapy offers hope amidst what otherwise feels like a hopeless situation.

Sadly, cancer pain is often under-treated. Sometimes, doctors don’t ask about a patient’s pain, or fail to offer adequate cancer pain management solutions. Other times, patients fail to mention their pain due to the fear of addiction or adverse side effects. However, ketamine infusions are safe and physically non-addictive, especially when administered in a clinical environment by an experienced professional. Side effects are minimal, and include headache, dizziness, or nausea—most of which self-resolve with intervention, or by changing the rate of infusion.

At Vitalitas Denver, we offer ketamine for cancer pain, as well as for other types of chronic pain. Between our two ketamine clinics in Colorado, we have administered thousands of ketamine infusions over the years. We have become well-known as one of the most trusted ketamine treatment centers in the country. Our clinics are staffed with experienced anesthesiologists, all of whom are highly-trained in ketamine administration. Furthermore, we use state-of-the-art monitoring equipment to ensure maximum pain management for cancer patients, with minimal discomfort.
