Description
On this episode, I discuss ketamine pharmacology.
Ketamine is primarily broken down by CYP2B6 which fortunately does not have a lot of common medications that can interfere with its action.
Ketamine can cause psychiatric type adverse effects such as hallucinations, nightmares, and vivid dreams.
At lower to moderate dosages, ketamine does have some mild sympathetic activity which can raise blood pressure and heart rate.
