At Home Ketamine Microdosing

Tree symbolizing health, growth, and living through microdosing treatment

Our personalized at-home microdose program delivers low-dose ketamine in the form of a sublingual lozenge, providing an improvement in mood and well-being without the dissociative or hallucinogenic effects associated with the ketamine. Even at these lower doses, microdosing has shown to be effective in managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and PTSD.

Our Research

Limbic Medical led a research study for microdose ketamine use among healthcare workers during the pandemic. Patients took the microdose of ketamine once daily and assessed their stress, depression, anxiety, and PTSD for a 4-6 week interval.

100% (25/25) of patients experienced improved anxiety, 92% (23/25) experienced improved stress, 96% (24/25) experienced improved PTSD, and 91% (20/22) experienced improved depression. Our results, along with other corroborating studies, illustrate the promise of microdosing ketamine to be an effective treatment plan to improve mental health.

KETAMINE FOR TREATMENT RESISTANT DEPRESSION

Ketamine treatments are quickly being recognized as one the most important advances in modern day therapy for depression. Standard therapy targeting the neurotransmitters involved with mood have not shown to be effective for a large number of individuals who take them. Yet countless individuals continue to take these drugs simply because there is no better option.

While no single approach or type of treatment will help everyone, ketamine is remarkable in that it has a success rate of up to 70% for patients who have tried conventional treatment and who are still suffering from debilitating depression. While new investigations are underway to understand the true scope of ketamine’s powers, current evidence suggests that ketamine has the ability to reset and regrow our brain cells, allowing patients to take back control of their lives.

KETAMINE FOR POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER (PTSD)

Chronic Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating condition.   It disrupts everyday activities, causing those who suffer to live in fear of their symptoms.  Patients with PTSD often also suffer from depression.  Ketamine treatments have been shown to rapidly and effectively alleviate suffering from both PTSD and depression.  If conventional treatments haven’t worked for you, Limbic Medical can help you take back control of your life.

KETAMINE FOR ADDICTION - Limbic Medical

POST ACUTE WITHDRAWAL SYNDROME

Addiction is a complex disease which can result in depression and related mood disorders once a person has completed acute detoxification.  This can happen after withdrawal from almost any substance, including opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines, cocaine, and methamphetamine.  The depression experienced from Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome typically doesn’t respond well to conventional treatment, which can take months to be effective.  During this time, patients are at a higher risk of relapse due to Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome. 

Limbic Medical has the knowledge and expertise to offer ketamine to individuals who have overcome addiction but are suffering from Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome.  If you are struggling with Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome, Limbic Medical can help you take back control of your life. 

A Cutting Edge Approach to Pain Management

FUNCTIONAL PAIN MANAGEMENT Limbic Medical Pasadena

Rather than just treat symptoms, our functional pain management approach aims to identify and treat the root cause of your pain. Limbic Medical combines cutting-edge pain management techniques with a holistic approach to help relieve suffering.

INTEGRATIVE PAIN MANAGEMENT - Functional and nutraceutical approach aims to identify the root cause of your symptoms.

COMPLEX REGIONAL PAIN SYNDROME (CRPS)

Complex Regional Pain Syndrome and neuropathic, chronic pain are characterized by overactive pain nerves that respond inappropriately to a stimulus, making normal sensations such as a light touch extremely painful. Modern medicine offers limited options to treat this debilitating condition. Ketamine’s unique action helps stop these nerves from over-firing and allows them to reset and possibly regrow new, healthy connections.

If you suffer from CRPS, it is imperative that it is treated aggressively and as early as possible. Ketamine therapy can be an effective part of a multi-modal approach to treat and overcome your pain. If you rely heavily on opioids for your pain control, Limbic Medical will also work with you and your pain physician to minimize your narcotic intake and provide maximum relief.

FIBROMYALGIA

Fibromyalgia is a poorly understood disease characterized by widespread chronic pain. It is frequently associated with depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Most treatment paradigms include lifestyle changes and medications which often are difficult to tolerate. Ketamine can rapidly improve the symptoms of Fibromyalgia, so that you can take back control of your life.

NEUROPATHY AND NEURALGIA

Nerve damage or pain can be caused by a variety of factors. Ketamine has unique nerve healing properties, and has been shown to help damaged nerves regrow new, healthy connections. Ketamine will alleviate your symptoms by decreasing overactive nerve activity, growing new neural connections, and speeding up the healing process.

Some conditions we treat are:

  • Peripheral Nerve Damage

  • Trigeminal Neuralgia
  • Post-Herpetic Neuralgia
  • Glossopharyngeal Neuralgia

Dr. Atoian has been an absolute life saver! 7 months ago I developed a rare disorder called CRPS. Thanks to Dr. Atoian and his team I’ve been able to get back to life and I can’t thank him enough for giving me back a feeling of hope. I’m extremely happy to say that after his treatments I have absolutely no pain!
