Ketamin
Ketamin, opprinnelig utviklet som et anestetikum, brukes nå både medisinsk og rekreasjonelt. I medisinske omgivelser verdsettes det for sine sedative og smertestillende egenskaper, særlig innen akuttmedisin. Rekreasjonelt er det ettertraktet for sine hallusinogene og dissosiative effekter. Imidlertid kan misbruk av ketamin føre til alvorlige kognitive og psykiske problemer, og det har potensial for avhengighet.
Beskrivelse
Testing for ketamine is important in clinical settings to monitor therapeutic use and prevent abuse. It’s also relevant in drug rehabilitation centers to ensure abstinence in individuals with a history of substance abuse. Additionally, ketamine testing is employed in forensic investigations, workplace drug screenings, and in scenarios where ketamine misuse is suspected, such as cases of unexplained altered mental states.
Ketamine is detectable in urine for 5 to 14 days after use, in blood for up to 24 hours, and in saliva for up to 24 hours. In hair follicles, ketamine can be detected for up to 90 days. These detection windows can vary based on factors like the dose used, frequency of use, and individual metabolic differences.
For most accurate results, GetTested’s ketamine test should ideally be taken within 5-14 days after the last use.
