DISSOCIATIVE · K

Ketamine

Ketamine can affect balance, movement, and awareness. Mixing it with sedatives raises the risk of choking or slow breathing.

What a scale reads: Milligrams of powder
Dose depends on: Route, strength, and tolerance
High-risk mix: Alcohol, opioids, or other sedatives

Dose and how to weigh it

30–75 mg is a commonly reported range for snorted ketamine. Swallowing it can feel different. A bump or line has no fixed weight.

Zero an empty tray on a milligram scale. 0.035 g is 35 mg of powder. Check that your scale can read that weight reliably. Ask a drug-checking service if it can measure strength.

Avoid mixing and taking more

Wait while effects build. Don’t mix with alcohol, opioids, benzos, or GHB. Stay away from water and heights. Get medical help for bladder pain, frequent urges, or blood in your urine.

Check the powder

A Morris reagent can screen for ketamine. It can’t tell you how strong it is or rule out other drugs.
