Med grade K pops up for about 140 USD a gram. It's not hard to get insulin needles. There are guides on how to IV on the internet.

This would likely last much shorter then an infusion as there's a limited options for setting a running IV as opposed to just a single injection.

That's US street price. On the dark web you can get medical grade for $20 a gram.

And from a veterinarian in Central America for less than $5 a gram. Is there a difference between "medical grade" and what is used for animals?

I said medical to differentiate it from street k which comes as a powder and is usually cut which is bad for injection.

And there shouldn't be a difference between animal and human ketamine.

Animals rarely sue their doctors.

Your "medical grade" could be fake on the darkweb, who knows what you are getting?

"In the village of Boshe, underground laboratories are producing ketamine cheaply in large amounts." from:

I also wouldn't be trusting the packaging wasn't fake (or refilled).

The darkweb is generally safer than buying shit from random people in real life

Don't think it'd be worth the trouble.

They'd more likely produce the powder as that's easier to conceal for shipping or more likely just make DCK which is still legal.

No you can't. Powder is 60-70 USD, vial liquid is 120-140 USD. If you want to import from South Africa it can be that cheap but that stuff sucks.
