Brainwave Study of Antidepressant Effects of Ketamine Forms and Their Breakdown Products in Monkeys

Ketamine's effects on brain activity were analyzed using electroencephalography in a primate model.

• Ketamine has been identified as a rapid-acting antidepressant.
• Different enantiomers and metabolites of ketamine may have varying effects on brain electrical activity.
• The study utilized electroencephalography to measure these effects in a primate model.
• Findings from this research may contribute to a better understanding of ketamine-based treatments for depression.
