What are the effects of ketamine when insuffilared/sniffed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not good!: Ketamine is a very potent analgesic/anesthetic agent. Intranasal use is not recommended. In low doses, ketamine causes sedation, decreased sensation to pain and increased salivation. In higher doses, it can cause hallucinations and increased blood pressure and heart rate. Ketamine is NOT used outside of a medical setting...Do NOT use at home!
