Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy and heroin addiction
Everything seems to go better with Ketamine: It sounds strange that a drug addiction could be successfully combated using another recreational drug, but it appears that certain psychedelic drugs can have a positive influence when combined with psychotherapy...
After a one year follow up, Krupitsky and his colleagues found that 50% of those who received multiple sessions of ketamine-assisted therapy remained abstinent compared to 22.2% of those who received only a single session. Traditional forms of heroin treatment, such as the use of naltrexone, typically have abstinence rates of about 20%.
