Arketamine: a scoping review of its use in humans.
Eur Arch Psychiatry Clin Neurosci
December 2024
Article Synopsis
- Arketamine (R-ketamine) has shown potential for prolonged antidepressant effects and better safety compared to esketamine (S-ketamine), though it has been less studied.
- A review of 20 studies with 410 subjects indicated arketamine's effectiveness for pain management and depression, but many studies were small and informal.
