http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ukn...-drug-ketamine-to-be-upgraded-to-Class-B.htmlKetamine, also known as Special K, will be reclassified from Class C to B in the face of mounting evidence over its physical and psychological harms.
Government drug advisers have warned that users as young as 20 are being condemned to a “lifetime sentence” after having their bladders removed due to heavy consumption of the drug.
As a Class B drug – alongside amphetamines and cannabis – people caught with it in their possession could face up to five years in prison and dealers could be jailed for up to 14 years.
