Ketamine

Description:

Ketamine, with the CAS number 6740-88-1, is a dissociative anesthetic primarily used in medical settings for anesthesia and pain management. It is characterized by its ability to induce a trance-like state, providing analgesia, sedation, and amnesia. Ketamine acts primarily as an NMDA receptor antagonist, which disrupts the transmission of pain signals in the brain. It is a chiral compound, existing as two enantiomers, with the S-enantiomer generally considered to have more potent anesthetic effects. Ketamine is also noted for its rapid onset of action and relatively short duration, making it useful in emergency medicine. In addition to its anesthetic properties, ketamine has gained attention for its potential antidepressant effects, particularly in treatment-resistant depression. The substance is typically administered intravenously or intramuscularly, and its use is associated with various side effects, including hallucinations and changes in perception. Due to its potential for abuse, ketamine is classified as a controlled substance in many jurisdictions.
