Tranquilliser banned over abuse fears
A popular tranquilliser was yesterday banned by the government after becoming popular with clubbers on the underground dance scene.

Ketamine – manufactured for humans and animals and sold under the brand name Ketalar – will become a Class C at the turn of the year.

Doses of 100mg can produce euphoria and energy rushes, while doses of 200mg can lead to hallucinations.

Home Office minister Paul Goggins said: "Ketamine presents serious health risks and must be subject to strict controls to provide a considerable deterrent to those seeking to import and supply the drug."
