    Ketamine’s effects on respiratory shit is serious.

    I almost stopped breathing during an assisted experience because I didn’t realize mixing K with benzos was dangerous.

      It’s how Elijah McClain died too. Young kid stopped by police for matching the description. They shot him full of ketamine and he died of respiratory failure.

        Can’t recall all the details, but the impression I got was his respiratory failure was caused by the officer choking him with a knee on his windpipe. EMTs did give a very high dose of ketamine at 5mg/kg body weight, whereas I usually use 0.5-1mg/kg body weight to put patients under surgical anesthesia.
