Ketamine Rehab in Connecticut

Treatment rules and programs in Connecticut

Who oversees treatment

In Connecticut, private freestanding facilities that treat substance abuse or dependence are licensed by the Department of Public Health. The Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services is the state agency that funds and operates addiction treatment services.

Prescription monitoring

The Connecticut Prescription Monitoring Program, run by the Department of Consumer Protection, keeps a central database called CPMRS. It tracks controlled substance prescriptions (Schedules II through V) so prescribers and pharmacists can review a patient's history.

Overdose Good Samaritan law

Connecticut law gives civil and criminal immunity to people who seek or receive emergency medical care for a suspected drug overdose, and to people who give an opioid antagonist such as naloxone to someone they believe is overdosing.

Court-ordered treatment

Connecticut allows a person who is alcohol- or drug-dependent to be committed through a probate court application under Conn. Gen. Stat. 17a-685 if they are dangerous to themselves or others while intoxicated, or gravely disabled. A court can order inpatient treatment of 30 to 180 days, and a separate short emergency commitment is governed by section 17a-684.

How the state treats gabapentin

Connecticut does not schedule gabapentin as a controlled substance, but the Department of Consumer Protection requires pharmacies to report gabapentin dispensing to the Connecticut Prescription Monitoring and Reporting System (CPMRS). Prescribers are not required to check CPMRS before prescribing it.

What to know about ketamine

Ketamine is used legitimately in hospitals and in supervised depression treatment, which can make it hard to see when use has become a problem. Using it to cope, using more often, or using despite urinary pain or memory problems are warning signs.

Because many people who misuse ketamine also live with depression or anxiety, programs that treat both at once tend to fit best. Read signs of ketamine addiction.

What ketamine rehab looks like

There is no approved medication for ketamine addiction, so rehab is built on therapy: cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, group work and relapse prevention. Because many people who misuse ketamine also have depression, anxiety or trauma, programs that treat mental health and substance use together tend to work best.

The programs on this page are residential or dual-diagnosis programs. Confirm with each program near Connecticut that it treats ketamine use.

Cost and coverage

The cost of treatment depends mostly on the level of care, how long you stay and your insurance. Residential care costs the most; outpatient therapy the least. Many programs on SAMHSA's directory accept private insurance, and some offer sliding-scale fees. See our insurance guides for details by carrier.
