I’m not terribly familiar with ketamine. Thorazine is often used for this purpose, as an injection, a gas, or a pill. How does it compare in how it affects the target?
I’m emphatically not in favor of police using this except as an alternative to other types of violence, but sedation is useful in other contexts.
- stochastic_monk 8y agoThorazine is an antipsychotic, for schizophrenia, stimulant overdoses, and stuff like PCP. Ketamine is more of a dissociative; it's a little like long-lasting injectable nitrous oxide. It causes hallucinations, but more like a loss of connection from reality than seeing things that aren't there.
