WHAT IS IT?
Ketamine hydrochloride is a central nervous system depressant and a rapid-acting general anesthetic. Is has sedative-hypnotic, analgesic, and hallucinogenic properties. It is marketed in the US and a number of foreign countries for use as a general anesthetic in both human and veterinary medical practices.
WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE?
Clear liquid or white powder, similar to cocaine.
HOW IS IT USED?
As a liquid, the most potent ways of using it are by injecting it intramuscularly or intravenously. There is the risk of losing motor control before injection is completed. Ketamine also can be made into a tablet, or a powder by evaporating the liquid and reducing it to a fine white powder than can be smoked/snorted.
It is being abused by an increasing number of young people as a club drug, and is often distributed at RAVES and PARTIES.
Because of its apperance, ketamine is often mistaken for cocaine or crystal meth. Some reports indicate it is sometimes sold on the streets as MDMA(ecstasy) and mixed with other drugs such as ephedrine and caffeine. Cafeteria use-the use of a number of hallucinogenic and sedative/hypnotic club drugs such as MDMA, GHB, LSD, and illegally used prescription drugs-is reported almost everywhere in the US.
