That headline made it sound like he was using it. Thankfully it was treatment for his depression and other issues.

It could be both.

The exact method of intake is unknown.

Bit suss you know more about this than they do...

[–] bestnerd 4 points 11 months ago

I mean it says he was in infusion therapy. So that’s all we have to go off of

Would they be at high levels for treatment though?

[–] GlitterInfection 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yes. Ketamine therapy involves putting you in a k-hole effectively. It's not something that you microdose.

[–] bestnerd 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It was probably still in his system

Incorrect. Half life is 3 hrs. His legit infusion therapy was 10 days before death. So... He had his own ketsmine hook up.
