Could you buy an anesthetic that knocks you out?

Anesthetics: General anesthetics are controlled substances that are usually supplied as liquids, to be vaporized in anesthesia machines. Ether and chloroform are liquids that may be used to saturate a cloth and could be used to cover one's nose and mouth. This is dangerous and should not be attempted.
