What Causes An Elevation In The Heart Rate And Fatigue After Ketamine Infusion?
Last week (monday thru friday) i had an infusion of ketamine 500mg, magnesium 100mg and ldocaine 100mg daily for crps. Ihave have ketamine and lidaocaine infusions before. But this was the highest dose of ketamine i ever received. Today, first day post tx, i feel like my heart is racing, although my pulse is 70, i am anxious and when my eyes are closed they are fluttering making it impossible to sleep despite being exhausted. I did not experience any of this with prior infusions. How long do u think it will take for these side effects to go away

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your symptoms are related to adverse effects of Ketamine.
It may take up to some hours for these adverse effects to subside. You should just have a little patience.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards,
Dr. Iliri
