In-person visit required for controlled substances
Georgia requires an in-person visit before a Georgia clinician can prescribe a controlled substance via telehealth — including ketamine. We schedule that visit at one of our partner sites in the Atlanta metro before any ketamine is prescribed. After that requirement is met, we review your diagnosis, prior treatments, medical history, and goals, then decide together whether ketamine is clinically appropriate.
If ketamine is appropriate, we build a written protocol — typically six supervised sublingual dosing sessions over four to six weeks, each paired with an integration visit by video. When prescribed, the compounded sublingual lozenge ships from a U.S.-licensed compounding pharmacy to your Georgia address. Your prescribing clinician stays with you for the entire course. Ketamine is prescribed off-label and is not FDA-approved for psychiatric conditions.
