The thriller of Patras with the three dead children is taking on new dimensions, as according to the latest information that came to light, the substance ketamine was found in Georgina's body, which had not been administered by the doctors. A little while later, Roula Pispirigou was brought to Attica Security while she was prosecuted for intentional homicide.
Ketamine is a substance that is mainly used in veterinary medicine as a very rapid anesthetic-sedative drug, but in small doses it has psychoactive and disruptive effects. It is available in liquid form or in white powder and its use varies. It can be smoked, administered intravenously and intramuscularly or taken orally or nasally.
Ketamine was first manufactured in 1962 and patented in 1963.
In 2010-13, some studies were performed that confirm its usefulness as a rapid-acting antidepressant. Doctors in the United Kingdom who conducted the first test of ketamine to treat depression, said it gives immediate and "spectacular" results and is considered a new and promising treatment for depression.
It should be noted that ketamine was widely used by wounded American soldiers in Vietnam, first as an anesthetic and then for stress. Also, in the last 10 years it was very widespread as a "drug".
