DangerousAlcohol + Kétamine

How Alcohol and Kétamine interact.

Both depress the central nervous system. Ketamine alone will not stop you from breathing at recreational doses; ketamine plus alcohol absolutely can, especially at the K-hole threshold.

What to watch for.

  • Respiratory depression and choking on your own vomit
  • Total loss of motor coordination, falls, head injury
  • Memory blackouts, vulnerability to assault or theft
  • Severe nausea and dehydration

If you already combined

  • Lie the person on their side (recovery position), keep airway clear
  • Do not leave them alone — monitor breathing rate
  • If breathing slows below 8/min, lips/fingertips turn blue, or they cannot be roused: call emergency services
