Emerging data for ketamine in obsessive-compulsive, stress-related, and substance use disorders

Abstract

As described in previous chapters, a growing body of evidence supports the clinical utility of ketamine in major depression. A smaller body of evidence suggests utility in other disorders, including obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and alcohol/substance use disorders. This chapter reviews the available data and suggests new avenues for research.
