The claim
Ketamine can help manage symptoms of depression

Ketamine is an anaesthetic with growing evidence supporting its potential for treating Treatment-resistant depression (TRD), but the drug is not yet FDA approved for psychiatric applications. Its off-label use requires medical supervision due to potential risks and side effects.
