Rape Drugs
aka Date Rape Drugs

cont. from

Ketamine Hydrochloride

Ketamine is a legal drug sold as a veterinary sedative or hospital grade anesthesia and goes by the brand names KetasetŪ or KetalarŪ. It is in the same family of drugs as PCP or angel dust (phencyclidine). When used in humans, the drug acts as a dissociative anesthesia; it renders the user vaguely aware of, but comfortably detached from, all bodily sensations.

Date rape drug, Ketamine, looks like an off-white powder. When mixed with liquid, it looks like slightly cloudy water.In undiluted form it looks like an off-white powder, in diluted form it looks like slightly cloudy water.

The street names for Ketamine are: Special K, Super K, K, OK, KO, Vitamin K, Kid Rock, Ket Kat, Make-Her-Mine.

Ketamine can cause these problems:

  • has a dissociative action, type of out of body experience, yet conscious
  • loss of grasp with primary senses - distorted perceptions of sight and sound
  • feelings of peace, detachment from body, enter a type of transitional world of darkness, leading to a near death type of experience
  • often causes those under influence to feel connected to emotionality
  • loss of memory, includes amnesia, hallucinations
  • patients state they are awake but paralyzed
  • can cause violent reactions in some who take the drug in excessive amounts, with aggressive displays, impaired self control, hallucinations and other toxic side effects such as nausea and vomiting
  • problems breathing
  • dream-like feeling
  • coma
  • death

When taken orally or nasally (snorted), the effects of Ketamine take 10 - 20 minutes to be realized. When taken intravenously the effects are instantaneous. The effects last less than 3 hours and the drug is detectable in the system up to 48 hours depending on the method of ingestion. Since it is often mixed with other mind-altering drugs, like heroin and cocaine, many people do not ever realize they have been given this substance.
