all these answers are absolutely retarded. These people dont no a thumb from there ***. "It can kill you" is what every person says. ANYTHING can kill you with the right amount of it, dumbasses. To answer your question, correctly, Ketamine is a disassociative/anesthetic/sedative hypnotic. Meaning, it can be used to block pain impulses or put something to sleep in surgery, perhaps. And it also can be used recreationally as a disassociative, meaning it will disconnect your mind from your body. You in effect, feel like you have left your body, or have absolutely no control over it. The most popular routes of ingestion are by the nose, Intramuscular injection, or oral. Depending on dose and route of administration, defines the length and strength of the disassociative effect that ketamine produces.

Guess I don't need to tell you how insane it is to use ketamine recreationally. If you are getting married you need to seriously think about the impact this is going to have on your life and future. That said, you need to detoxify your body. Drink plenty of water, eat a balanced diet, and go to the doctor if you don't feel well in a day or two. Good luck!

I'm in Quebec, Canada.
I had a shot of IV ketamine at the hospital last year when the surgeon open my lower back to make a minor intervention.
It controls the pain totally, for about 30 minutes, and the surgeon told me that it's the strongest med that he could IV me without going into anaesthesic procedures.
And, i'm a human, not an horse ! Hope this help.

It's a dissociative anesthetic and is used fairly often in children undergoing short painful procedures in emergency medicine. Typically the kids sit there and stare into the distance, unaware of everything. They sometimes barf shortly after it's given, but they're still awake enough not to choke on their own vomit, which is a bigger problem with other drugs. It's much less likely than many alternatives to affect breathing. It's not often used in adults because of an "emergence phenomenon," which you can think of as a nightmare on steroids, but this is much less common in kids. As a recreational drug, it's a particularly stupid choice, though, even if you know what it's about and get the dose exactly right.

It is an anaesthetic produced to replace PCP in the 1960's. It can kill you. It is a respiratory suppressant. It has a lot of the psychedelic side effects that PCP had, so it was used recreationally in the 60s. It is still used in veterinary medicine.

Contrary to what some of the people on here have answered, it can kill you, so I don't recommend it. We use it to knock down horses for anesthesia.

It's a drug used to knock out large animals, it kills humans so don't be too interested.

Gay boys take it I think and they use it on horses! Oh apparently it numbs you so you don't feel much, also it can induce an out of body experience or so someone told me who i used to know.
