additional information

Ketamine is a fast-acting anesthetic and dissociative drug that is primarily used in medical settings for sedation and pain relief. In recent years, it has gained attention for its potential as a treatment for depression and other mood disorders, often administered in lower doses through intravenous infusion. Ketamine works by modulating neurotransmitter activity in the brain, particularly by affecting the glutamate system. While generally considered safe for medical use, it can cause side effects such as disorientation, hallucinations, and increased blood pressure. Its use outside of medical supervision can lead to recreational misuse and pose risks to mental and physical health.
