Is Ketamine Therapy Legal in Colorado? Here’s What You Should Know

If you’re struggling with depression, PTSD, anxiety, or chronic pain and traditional treatments haven’t worked, ketamine therapy might be the alternative you’ve been looking for. But one of the most common questions we hear is: Is ketamine therapy legal in Colorado?

Yes, ketamine therapy is legal in Colorado when administered by licensed providers in a clinical setting.

At Klarisana, we offer safe, legal, and medically supervised ketamine treatment at our Colorado clinics, including Denver, Longmont, Thornton and Centennial. With years of experience and a reputation for compassionate care, Klarisana is here to support your healing.

Legal Status of Ketamine in Colorado

Ketamine is a Schedule III controlled substance and is FDA-approved as an anesthetic. Its use for mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, and PTSD is considered “off-label,” and it’s completely legal in Colorado when prescribed and administered by a licensed medical provider.

At Klarisana, all of our providers follow rigorous safety protocols to ensure that each session is delivered ethically and effectively.

Why Klarisana is Colorado’s Trusted Choice for Ketamine Therapy

Klarisana was one of the first ketamine clinics in the United States, and we’ve remained at the forefront of psychedelic-assisted therapy and integrative mental health care.
