IMPORTANT DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS
The usual recommended adult dose of Nubain is 10 mg for a 70 kg individual, administered subcutaneously, intramuscularly or intravenously; this dose may be repeated every 3 to 6 hours as necessary.
NUBAIN should be administered as a supplement to general anesthesia only by persons specifically trained in the use of intravenous anesthetics and management of the respiratory effects of potent opioids
Naloxone, resuscitative and intubation equipment and oxygen should be readily available. Initiate the dosing regimen for each patient individually, taking into account the patient's severity of pain, patient
response, prior analgesic treatment experience, and risk factors for addiction, abuse, and misuse. Monitor patients closely for respiratory depression, especially within the first 24 to 72 hours of initiating
therapy and following dosage increases with NUBAIN and adjust the dosage accordingly. Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration
whenever solution and container permit.

Background
Ketamine is an NMDA receptor antagonist with a potent anesthetic effect.6 It was developed in 1963 as a replacement for phencyclidine (PCP) by Calvin Stevens at Parke Davis Laboratories. It started being used
for veterinary purposes in Belgium and in 1964 was proven that compared to PCP, it produced minor hallucinogenic effects and shorter psychotomimetic effects. It was FDA approved in 1970, and from there, it
has been used as an anesthetic for children or patients undergoing minor surgeries but mainly for veterinary purposes.
Dosage for Ketamine Hydrochloride
As with other general anesthetic agents, the individual response to ketamine hydrochloride is somewhat varied depending on the dose, route of administration, and age of patient, so that dosage recommendation
cannot be absolutely fixed. The drug should be titrated against the patient's requirements. This medication is administered under a physician's supervision. The initial dose of ketamine administered intravenously
(IV) ranges from 1 mg/kg to 4.5 mg/kg. The average amount required to produce five to ten minutes of surgical anesthesia is 2 mg/kg. The initial dose of ketamine administered intramuscularly (IM) ranges from
6.5 to 13 mg/kg. A dose of 10 mg/kg usually produces 12 to 25 minutes of surgical anesthesia.
