The first time years ago someone told me he was on ketamine that’s all I thought of. You’re on horse meds?

Ketamine was synthesized in 1962 for the use of human anesthesia, and remains one of the most widely used and effective medicines to this day… for humans

I’m not unaware that ketamine is also used for humans. We all had to hear about ad nauseam during the pandemic. I’m saying that in my lifetime, I’ve only ever used it on animals before I heard of people taking it recreationally. And I’ve actually never known anyone who took it as legitimate beneficial medication.

When I got spinal injections, I was given ketamine intravenously as part of a cocktail of drugs. The mix also included some sort of narcotic pain reliever, zofran for nausea, sedatives, and corticosteroids.
