Background: Major depressive disorder is one of the most debilitating condition prevalent worldwide. Ketamine is NMDA receptor antagonist having rapid action on depressive symptoms.Objectives: Ketamine at subanesthetic doses have effect on different symptoms in depressive disorders. Here we will examine the effects of subanesthetic dose of ketamine on various psychopathology variables in terms of depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and illness severity comprehensively in terms of immediate effect and delayed effect after repeated doses of injection on male patients of severe depression.Methodology: A open label study of 20 patients (19 completed the study) of male sex, with a diagnosis severe depression, having no previous history of psychotic disorder, head injury, organic disorder, substance use and drug free for 4 weeks, having no cardiological problem were admitted in patient, assessments were done at baseline then injection ketamine hydrochloride was given at dose of 0.5 mg/kg intravenous bolus, assessments were done at 1 hour of first dose, total 6 doses were given in similar pattern over two weeks. After two weeks final assessment was done.Results: There is significant lowering of HAM-D, HAM-A and CGI-severity of illness from baseline to two weeks. Whereas change in scores at first hour is significant for HAM-D and HAM-A. Adverse effects seen are mild and transient and subsided within one hour of ketamine injection.Conclusion: Ketamine has robust and rapid effect on depressive and anxiety symptoms as well as this improvement is sustained with repeated dosing after two weeks and there is overall decrease in illness severity with repeated dosing and it is also well tolerated in dose of 0.5 mg/kg given intravenous bolus.
