Ketamine was originally developed as a veternarian anesthetic agent – yup, a horse tranquilizer. It started surfacing as a drug of abuse in the 80s under a bunch of different names – Special K is the most known name. It’s still used in medical communities for surgery and anesthesia. It has a unique property of retrograde amnesia – not only does the person forget the active time period of the drug (about 1-2 hrs), but they also forget about 10 minutes PRIOR to the drug being given. That’s quite useful for some patients.
As an agent of abuse, it’s not as addictive as other drugs (ie. heroin), but it causes a lot of problems, largely due to the combination of euphoria and respiratory depression. Euphoria makes you happy and excited and more energetic, and respiratory depression means you breathe less. Not a good combination.
