    Radlib ivermectin? It's literally horse meds too right? Though ketamine is not used for COVID as far as I know.

    Or is ketamine actually helpful for humans? Its for mental health right?

        We're all mammals and share close versions of the same proteins so it makes sense that drug targets can work in more than one species.

      little bit of both. it is a horse tranquilizer. it's was a schedule 1 drug for humans, I believe. but now it's schedule 3. but they're starting to open up clinical trials for it the same way they're doing for lsd. it was popularly abused for a long time. But they are starting to discover applications of it for treating PTSD and severe anxiety that doesn't respond to other treatments. It isn't and shouldn't be a first choice, but it's helpful to have a variety of options because everyone is different and PTSD in particular is notoriously hard to treat.
