Deschloroketamine (DXE, DCK, 2'-Oxo-PCM) is a dissociative anesthetic[1][2] that has been sold online as a designer drug.[3][4][5][6][7] It has also been proposed for the treatment of bacterial, fungal, viral or protozoal infections and for immunomodulation at doses of 2 mg per day.[8]

History

In 2019, it became part of a group of molecules studied by the French laboratory Caulredaitens.[citation needed]

Legal status

Deschloroketamine is illegal in Latvia,[9] and is covered by blanket bans in Canada and the UK.[citation needed]
