Woman Shares Experience of Lifelong Bladder Damage from Ketamine Use

5 Haziran 2026BBC News

Ellie Wight's experience with ketamine has left her with a severely damaged bladder, which can now only hold a fraction of the urine it should. Initially believing the drug to be a 'safe option', she now warns others about the potential long-term consequences of its use.
Her story highlights the often-overlooked risks associated with recreational drug use.
Ketamine, originally developed as an anesthetic, has gained popularity as a recreational drug, often perceived as less harmful than other substances. However, its side effects, particularly on the urinary system, are becoming increasingly recognized in medical literature.
Wight's case serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of misperceiving the safety of certain drugs. While ketamine is sometimes used in medical settings, its recreational use can lead to severe health complications, such as bladder damage.
