| Summary | A short acting dissociative anaesthetic and hallucinogen commonly used in emergency medicine. It is the prototypical dissociative, and is widely used at sub-anesthetic doses recreationally. Small doses are comparable with alcohol, while larger doses are immobilising and lead to psychedelic experiences: the "K-Hole." |
| Dose | Insufflated Threshold: 5-10mg Light: 20-50mg Common: 50-125mg Strong: 125-175mg Heavy: 175mg+ NOTE: Ketamine is based on weight. These are figures for the average 150 pound male There is no concrete dose for the "K-Hole" as each user is different. |
| Onset | Insufflated: 7.5-20 minutes Oral: 10-75 minutes Intramuscular: 2-7.5 minutes Intravenous: 0-2 minutes |
| Duration | 1-2 hours |
| Avoid | Driving. Moving and walking if possible. Mixing with other depressants like alcohol, benzos and opiates. |
| Effects | A feeling of drunkenness and well being at low doses. As dose increases the user may begin to feel a disconnection from their body. At 'khole' doses the user may become completely disconnected from both body and mind. |
