Description
Ketamine is an anesthetic that is also used as a recreational drug. It gives a so-called dissociative pain relief: the patient seems awake, but does not respond to pain stimuli.
Ketamine is available in different forms namely powder and liquid form.
When used as an anesthetic, people experience hallucinations in 20% to 50% of cases. Some patients find this very pleasant and control freaks do not like this. In fact, a certain group swears by the nice feeling of keta before you fall asleep during a general anesthetic or just wake up after a general anesthetic.
