Ketamine and skin reactions

[MoosejawSanders]

I tried ketamine for around the second time last night and I notice that my skin has gotten a bit blotchy today. I've looked around online for mentions of this and it seems that some people do get this. My skin did have a weird feel to it last night and into this morning, kind of like a burning sensation in the thighs as if I had exposed my legs to harsh cold. It seems that it could be an allergic reaction, but I'm not sure if anyone knows anything more concrete...

ketamine acts as a noradrenergic reuptake inhibitor, it can cause vasoconstriction, which can lead to blotchy skin. did you inject it into your thighs? if your source wasn't a vial of s-ketamine, did you pass it through a .22 micron filter? there are too many variables to determine what went wrong without more details

It was snorted in maybe 70mg lines over the course of the night. I did maybe 300mg total over a few hours. The spots are on my thighs, where I was having the sensation, and one right on the side of my nose, like over the sinus.

maybe an allergic reaction to an inactive cut. try a different batch, if that doesnt help maybe your body doesnt like ketamine

It sounds like it may be a reaction to cuts or preservatives in the ketamine, or (less likely) K itself
If it happens again with the same batch, try another batch/supplier. If it gives the same effects; you'll know.

Like others said, it was probably a cut. Probably some type of amino acid.
