From regulatory gray zones to long-term safety unknowns, this episode examines provider training gaps, inappropriate patient selection, and the ethical questions surrounding off-label use. While ketamine represents genuine hope for many, realizing its promise requires confronting risks, limitations, and inequities that threaten vulnerable patients seeking help.
