Yep, an anesthetic with the nasty side effects of hallucinations, irrational behavior, confusion, and dependence.




Is that what med school told you?

That is what UpToDate told me.

It's only like 10% that have the hallucination-esque issues when they wake up. The dependence aspect is an issue. There are other side effects, but what medicine doesn't have SE's?

I think it'll be an interesting study nonetheless.

Who even uses ketamine anymore?
