What is ketamine?

Ketamine is used as an anesthetic for surgery, a treatment for depression, and is a drug of abuse. Ketamine is FDA-approved as an anesthetic to put you to sleep for surgery and to help prevent pain and discomfort. Ketamine for depression is an off-label use, and its use for depression is currently being researched in clinical trials. It is also a drug of abuse that is used illegally recreationally for its hallucinogenic properties and is known to be a “date rape” drug as it causes short-term memory loss.

Ketamin is not an opioid (narcotic); it is an NMDA receptor antagonist, which means it blocks the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) neurotransmitter in the brain.

When used for anesthesia, ketamine is given as an intravenous injection (IV) or as an intramuscular injection (IM).

Esketamine (Spravato) is used to treat depression; it is one of the forms of racemic ketamine and was FDA-approved in 2019 for specific types of depression. Spravato is a nasal spray that is used under strict medical supervision and is not used by patients at home.

Ketamin is FDA-approved as a general anesthetic to be used as the sole anesthetic agent for diagnostic and surgical procedures that do not require skeletal muscle relaxation. It is also used to induce anesthesia prior to the administration of other general anesthetic agents and as a supplement to other anesthetic agents. Ketamine is not FDA-approved for depression; it is used off-label for this condition.

Ketamin Therapy

Ketamine infusion therapy has been used for depression in patients with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) for its rapid antidepressant effects. Depression is an off-label use of ketamine as it is not an FDA-approved indication. In clinical trials ketamine therapy is mainly given as intravenous infusion, but may be given as intranasal spray, slow release tablets, sublingual tablets, or other forms.

In clinical trials, ketamine infusions have been given as a single dose once or in multi-dose therapy, as infusions once, twice, or 3 times weekly for 2 weeks during the acute treatment phase. Sometimes infusions have been continued once or twice weekly during the continuation phase for a total of 4–6 weeks of therapy or gradually tapered. In clinical trials ketamine infusion therapy dose is lower than an anesthetic dose. If patients have not responded to several initial infusions, then it appears unlikely that they will respond to further infusions.

Is ketamin a Controlled Substance?

Yes, ketamine is a controlled substance classified as a Schedule III drug under the DEA Controlled Substances Act. This means that ketamine has a potential for abuse that is less than the drugs in schedules I and II. Abuse of the ketamine may lead to a moderate to low potential for physical dependence but high psychological dependence. Drugs that are classified as Schedule III are currently accepted for medical use in treatment in the U.S.

Why is ketamin abused?

Ketamine is abused illegally due to its hallucinogenic and dissociative effects. It leads to changes in sensory experiences, dream-like states, and also a distortion of sights, colors, sounds, self, and one’s environment. Common ketamine street names are Special K, K, super k, ket, ketters, vitamin K, cat tranquilizer, C or horse trank. Ketamine for abuse is usually a clear liquid or an off-white powder. It is often “snorted” up the nose, injected, mixed into drinks, or smoked with marijuana or tobacco. Other dissociative drugs include phencyclidine (PCP), Salvia divinorum, and dextromethorphan (DXM). Hallucinogens include LSD, psilocybin, and mescaline.

Abuse of large doses of this medicine can also lead to powerful visual hallucinations that are intensified by environmental stimuli. Coma and deep unconsciousness can occur. When higher doses of ketamine are abused or during emergence, it is reported to produce vivid dreams and an “out-of-body”, “K-hole” or “near-death” hallucinogenic experience, often reported as terrifying (similar to a bad LSD trip).

Abuse of ketamin can be linked with short-term and long-term problems:

• Short-term problems: Problems with attention, learning, and memory; dreamlike states, hallucinations; sedation; confusion; loss of memory; raised blood pressure; unconsciousness; dangerously slowed breathing.
• Long-term problems: Ulcers and pain in the bladder; kidney problems; stomach pain; depression; poor memory.

There is also the risk of HIV, hepatitis, and other infectious diseases from shared needles.

Ketamine use can be fatal in people who are alcoholics or acutely intoxicated with alcohol. There are animal reports of an increased risk of toxicity when ketamine is combined with caffeine. Theoretically, this may be a concern in people who have consumed energy drinks, often done at nightclubs where this medicine may be abused.

The intensity of side effects is related to the dose of the drug consumed.
