What’s the LD50 for Ketamine? He’s gotta be approaching it soon with the tolerance he’s likely building.
Unless it’s like heroin and he’s also tolerant to high doses.
It is pretty high. According to Wikipedia, "Ketamine, generally, stimulates breathing; however, in the first 2–3 minutes of a high-dose rapid intravenous injection, it may cause a transient respiratory depression." According to TripSitter, "The LD50 ... [is] over 100 times higher than what’s considered a heavy dose of ketamine." (Extrapolated from rodent LD50).
Keep in mind the meaning of LD50, it's only what causes the deaths of half a group of unaccustomed victims. He might need more, he might need less with whatever the rest of his drug cocktail of choice is.
Yeah, I can’t even find a LD100 for it.
