Who oversees treatment
The Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS), part of the Department of Human Services, is New Jersey's designated single state agency for substance use and mental health. Substance use treatment facilities are licensed by the Department of Health under N.J.A.C. 8:43K.
Prescription monitoring
The New Jersey Prescription Monitoring Program (NJPMP) is run by the Division of Consumer Affairs. It tracks controlled dangerous substances dispensed in outpatient settings, and licensed prescribers and pharmacists can check a patient's history.
Public coverage for treatment
New Jersey's Medicaid program is NJ FamilyCare, which covers most substance use treatment services for eligible people.
Overdose Good Samaritan law
New Jersey's Overdose Prevention Act (P.L. 2013, c.46) protects a person who calls for medical help during an overdose, and the overdose victim, from arrest and prosecution for certain drug possession and use offenses. It does not cover other crimes such as trafficking.
How the state treats gabapentin
New Jersey requires pharmacies to report every gabapentin transaction to the NJ Prescription Monitoring Program, the same way they report Schedule II-V controlled dangerous substances. The requirement comes from N.J.A.C. 13:45A-35.3.

Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic and a Schedule III controlled substance. A related prescription nasal spray, esketamine, is approved for treatment-resistant depression and is given only in certified clinics. Outside medical settings, ketamine is misused for its dissociative effects.
Regular ketamine use can lead to cravings and compulsive use, and it can damage the bladder and urinary tract. There is no approved medication for ketamine addiction, so treatment relies on therapy and care for co-occurring mental health conditions. See our ketamine addiction guide.
What ketamine rehab looks like
Ketamine rehab gives you distance from the drug and time to address what drove the use. Residential care suits frequent, heavy use or use alongside other drugs; intensive dual-diagnosis programs fit when you can live at home safely.
Ask about psychiatric care, therapy for trauma, and medical follow-up for bladder or urinary symptoms.

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.
