Rescheduling ketamine under the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001

This consultation seeks your views on the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs’ (ACMD) recommendation to reschedule ketamine to Schedule 2 to the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001 (as amended) (the 2001 Regulations).
 
This follows reclassification under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 (the 1971 Act) as a Class B drug on 10 June 2014, more specifically on the record keeping, prescribing and safe custody requirements applicable to Schedule 2 drugs.
 
Ketamine is currently a Schedule 4 Part 1 drug and therefore lightly regulated.
 
These proposals have been prepared in discussion with the ACMD and the Department of Health.
