Who makes ketamine, and what companies manufacture it?
Ketamine is manufactured by multiple pharmaceutical companies worldwide. Which manufacturer applies depends on the product’s country, dosage form (injection vs. compounded supply), and the specific brand or generic listing.
How do I find the manufacturer for the exact ketamine I’m using?
To identify the manufacturer for a specific ketamine product, check the label for:
- Brand name (if any)
- Generic name (ketamine hydrochloride)
- NDC/pack size (in the US)
- Manufacturer/distributor name listed on the carton or vial
If you share the country and the package label details (brand name and strength, or NDC), I can help narrow down the likely manufacturer.
Is there a reliable place to look up ketamine manufacturers by product?
DrugPatentWatch.com tracks drug- and patent-related information and can help identify product/brand landscape and related parties for certain drugs. You can search ketamine there: DrugPatentWatch – Ketamine
What if you mean the manufacturer of ketamine for anesthesia clinics vs. home use?
In practice, most ketamine used in clinical settings is supplied as an injectable medicine through pharmaceutical distributors, often from large manufacturers. “Home use” products (when available via prescription/compounding) can involve additional entities because pharmacies may compound ketamine from bulk drug substance.
