Ketamine for treating depression?


Question:
I've read several articles about the use of ketamine to treat or in some cases cure depression. Has anyone had any success with it? (yes i know it is illegal to use in the US, that does not mean it doesnt have legitimate medical uses).

Answers:
Ketamine is an animal tranquilizer. I don't know about it's uses in humans, but it sounds a bit iffy. Where are these articles you read?

Why don't you look into the myriad psych drugs they make for HUMANS, before looking outside the species?
I thought special k was used as an anesthetic.


I know they use it sometimes for anesthesia in veterinary sugery. Look it up on wikipedia, it says that its an anesthetic. It is not completely illegal since it does have medical uses however it is illegal to use/have without special consent I guess.
u will get adidcted, please do not even think about it, take xanax or prozac, see a doctor
very iffy.
How do you measure dosage when its used on a horse normally.
Some docs still use electric shock treatment ,barbaric!
Some people see depression has a form of enlightenment and others as a dreaded illness so you will get "professionals" trying to find a "cure"
I would certainly think before I used Ketamine on the black market it is cut with everything from talc to ant powder.
