Understanding Ketamine
Treatment versus misuse
Ketamine is used in supervised clinical settings. It is also used recreationally and at home without supervision, where use can grow more frequent, larger and harder to control.
Our guide to ketamine misuse versus ketamine therapy explains the difference.
Recognizing the Pattern
Signs of ketamine misuse
These signs can appear whether use began at a party or with a prescription.
