Treatment-resistant depression (TRD) remains a major clinical challenge, and long-term real-world data on intranasal esketamine are limited. To describe long-term dosing patterns and clinical outcomes associated with intranasal esketamine in routine clinical practice. Single-center observational cohort study with descriptive analyses. We analyzed 45 patients with TRD treated with intranasal...
Ketamine's use in treating bipolar depression must account for risks, such as switching to manic episodes or worsening symptoms. This study examines ketamine's impact on depressive symptoms, focusing on 'inner tension,' 'sleep reduction,' and 'suicidal ideation' over four weeks in treatment-resistant bipolar disorder (TR-BD) patients.
