It s another old drug that kids have found a new use for. Ketamine is an animal anesthetic that is prompting kids to break into vet clinics to get their dose. Oh, I think that time it was about 10 bottles of Ketamine, said Dr. Cecil Johnson about his most recent break in. Dr. Johnson knows the sedative as Ketamine, but on the street it s called Special K , Vitamin K, and Kit Kat . The party drug doubles as a date rape drug.
Date rapists slip the drug into their victims drinks.
The sedation takes effect, and the rapist has a handicapped victim. Ketamine is produced for animals, not humans. It was formerly used for human surgery, but it was replaced by safer drugs. Depending on the dosage, Special K can stimulate a range of effects. Small doses can impair concentration, learning, and memory functions.
