| Ketamine is known as both a party drug and a horse tranquiliser. But now it is to be offered to Scots suffering severe depression for the first time at a private clinic in South Lanarkshire. The treatment, which will involve doses of ketamine, is already available through NHS trusts in both London and Oxford. Patients must pay for the drug and are advised not to undergo treatment unless they can afford at least £3,000 per year. It is also offered by private clinics in England. Now the Eulas Clinic in Hamilton has become the first Scottish provider to go through the regulatory process allowing them to offer the drug for treating depression where other medication and therapies have not succeeded.
