Ketamine
Hydrochloride
Injection
USP,(±)-2-(o-Chlorophenyl)-2-(methylamino)cyclohexanone
hydrochloride, is a white crystalline compound, soluble in water to
20% clear and colorless solution.
Aqueous solutions in use have pH range from 3.5 to 5.5. The base
component is 86.7% of the salt. It is
supplied as a slightly
acidic (pH 3.5 - 5.5) solution for intravenous or intramuscular
injection in
concentration containing the equivalent of 50 mg ketamine base per mL
and contains 0.01% benzethonium
chloride as a preservative.
ACTION
Ketamine Hydrochloride Injection USP is a rapid-acting,
non-barbiturate general anesthetic. It produces an
anesthetic state characterized by profound analgesia, normal
pharyngeal-laryngeal reflexes and normal or
slightly enhanced skeletal muscle tone. Mild cardiac stimulation and
occasionally respiratory depression
occur.
The anesthetic state produced by Ketamine Hydrochloride Injection USP
has been termed “dissociative
anesthesia” in that it appears to selectively interrupt association
pathways of the brain before producing
somesthetic sensory blockage. Ketamine
Hydrochloride Injection USP decreases the activity of the
neocortex and subcortical structures (thalamus) and increases the
activity in the limbic system and reticular
substance.
