Kindly consult with psychiatrist.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

I can understand your concern. As per your history, as you get limited success with tab. praxil. Ketamine is generally used in other treatment failure cases or severe illness. So kindly consult with your psychiatrist. After proper detailed examination and history, he may take decision. Kindly follow up if you have any query.
