Side effects - How much K a day reccomended

[Synesthesiac]

swim and friend have a week with nothing much going on and a shiteload of special K, and for the last two days have been using K all day, about 0.5-1g each per day. Swim thinks there have been hardly any side effects so far, but was wonding if doing that much continually for a week or so would be advisable or if there would be side effects that start creeping in. Theres nothing toxic that builds up with recurrant use or anything is there?

Thanks.

Aside from going into other side- and after- effects, you should consider the very addictive effects of ketamine that build up with subsequent use. This can easily become a real problem fast.

yea, thanks for the warning. Special K is rare to find in swims area, this was a one off event when he got this, so he thinks that once this lot has gone it will be okay and addiction wont be an issue. He's only able to get it like two times every year when a certain aquaintance goes on holiday to his area, which is just as well really.

From what swims read so far K seems to be a very safe and non toxic substance, and using daily for a while does not seem to produce any health issues. The LD-50 of K is ridiculously high according to the wiki. Unless swim has missed some vital information.

Swim has been using ketamine everyday for about 6 months.....1-3g a day.

Nothing has happened until recently. Swim went to the hospital for chest pains after a week of not knowing what the feeling was. Swim was diagnosed with Costochondritis. Swim went home and read about ketamine, and pains.....he found "k-pains". That's what swim's been experiencing and it's not pleasant whatsoever . It is horribly painful he says. Also, lately when swim's been urinating it start to hurt right after.

Using, or you could say abusing, ketamine such as 1g+ a day for a long time.....is not good for your body.

thanks. Swim wont be using this frequently, only on and off for a week or so, so he should be OK. Do you think swiy was just unlucky and had an abnormal reaction? or is this a common side effect?

Found a thread about k-pains here: http://www.drugs-forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=69625

This is only from repeated very high usage.... right? Doing about 5g or so spread out over a week will not be enough to get any of these symptoms I presume?

[Djvr16]

Only constant use should give you these pains. Nothing to worry about unless swiy uses 2g+ every day for a long time.

SWIM seems to notice slight depression after stopping use, after using a gram to a few for several consecutive days, followed by the urge to use more.. It seems highly mentally addictive, ISO, and SWIM feels bad for what feels like abusing it after doing it for extended periods..

thanks for the advise peeps.

Swim finds theres something about watching family guy and doing special K that just goes hand in hand. Nearly watched twenty episodes today!

Wow, My Bill agrees! Once he thought that family guy held the answers to the universe, which was weird.
It's good that SWIY has done their reading before hand.

Apart from the addiction potential the other main issue for swim is wasting Ketamine due to tolerance, after a few days of use the dose needs to be continually raised and day by day the plateau gets less and less wonderous and the dose required to hit a K-hole could probably knock out a horse or two. If swiy can restrain himself and use the K less often his K-holes will be far better and swiy will get far more of them, or so swims cat tells him.

Yeah, swim has just noticed this. He just sniffed a 83mg line and got just a very mild buzz. If he had done that earlier in the week he would have literally been paralysed and would be enjoying being part of the ceiling.

What sort of doses are you talking about for a very high tolerance? Are we talking 100mg plus? Swim is not really up for pushing the 100mg in one go dose, unless thats considered normal and safe.

Ya definately in excess of 100mg when tolerance is up, intranasally anyway. Swim would advise extreme caution for anybody raising the dose using IM injection. With snorting swim finds he will hit the anesthetic stage long before he gets near what he considers to be a dangerous dose. Although with high tolerence the line between safe and dangerous doses may become blurred so caution is advised.


Swim snorted roughly between 100mg - 200mg almost every night for a week or more and by the end of it he was needing between 300mg-700mg+ taken in relatively short period of time to get anywhere near a K-hole. And another day or so later swim was having short very short K-hole experiences ( 5 or 10 minutes long ) followed swiftly by the anesthetic stage....basically swim would almost completely skip the desired experience and go straight to sleep. Which was just a waste or money/K/time.

[Djvr16]

100mg is normal and safe.

A normal k hole dose goes by body weight. If SWIY is only 100lbs then 100mg with no tolerance should theoretically put themselves into a hole. 1mg/lb for a k hole experience.

With tolerance though, people sniff quarter grams in one go. I believe that ketamine alone is not dangerous until one is railing multiple grams within a very short period of time. Even then, I don't think the nose could absorb that much, and would just drip down the back of the throat.

[Devilsmile]

Swims been using K way too much recently, and 0.5-1g builds up to like 2-3g's a day, best thing to do is take K enough to get you shitfaced for that night then leave it until the next crazy night, otherwise you build up a tolerance like swim and it doesnt effect you anymore, yet swim still craves it.

[hijaQr]

If you continuously sniff 2-3g's a day for even a small period of time you will fall victim to nasty k cramps in the chest and even worse start pissing blood from an ulcerated bladder. Its not nice at all.

[phatassone]

it's bad for swiys kidneys, but apart from that the most dangerous thing about ket is ending up doing something stupid by accident...

[ComfortablyNumb]

SWIM was recommended to wait a week between ktrips so that they stay powerful and fun. I would say keep it 3-4 days apart, it just makes it funner.

[Djvr16]

SWIM has been using ketamine everyday for about 7 months now.......Took a break for a week, just to prove to himself he's not addicted, but just likes it a lot.

Well, SWIM has been sniffing 2-4g everyday for this long time. SWIM has had two times he's urinated blood, got anti-biotics and it goes away. SWIM was thinking bladder/kindey infection.....

What damage could be done so far? Should SWIM go to a urologist?

[roadkill barbie]

SWIM would just like to thank the above for their notes of caution. Swim is about to procure a relatively large amount (50 g) and of course has to be very cautious with tolerance levels and psychological, (as well as physical by the sounds of it) problems.
Swim will let the forum know just how hard it is to stay on what he see's as an acceptable amount of 1-1.5 (max./special occasions) grams for 1 night then staying off it for at least 3 nights.
Swim does not feel this drug works as well with distractions,, even friends talking can really do detrimental things to your experience so some beverlyhills cop said. At least if wanting to explore the inner worlds suggested in other posts.
