Why Are You Feeling Terrible After A Ketamine Treatment?

Synopsis: Have you experienced a ketamine treatment “hangover” and are curious what it is all about? Learn in this blog what to expect after a ketamine treatment and what to do about it.

This blog post has been adapted from our Why Do I Feel Terrible After A Ketamine Treatment? video.

If you're wondering, “Why do I feel terrible after ketamine treatment?” Then you've come to the right blog. At our clinic, we have a term for this less-than-great feeling after a ketamine treatment. It’s called the "ketamine hangover" and the following are a list of symptoms:

  • Fatigue

  • Lethargy

  • Headaches

  • Nausea

  • Malaise

  • General sense of tiredness

How long does this “ketamine hangover” last and more

This run-down feeling can last up to 24 or sometimes 72 hours. One of the things you can do is mentally prepare and make plans for what to do if you do experience it. We recommend the following planning to prepare for this potential experience:

  • Avoid scheduling important meetings or phone calls

  • Avoid going out to noisy, energy draining places

  • Relax and take it easy at home

  • Have easy access snacks and meals to enjoy

  • Have a supportive friend or family member be with you


Each person’s post-ketamine treatment experience is different

Please remember that if you're not feeling well after the treatment, you need to speak with your ketamine specialist and/or the clinic where you received your infusion. Each individual's medical history and response to treatment is unique, and the professionals who provided your treatment are in the best position to assist you. 

We hope you found this information helpful and wish you a supportive healing journey.
