Layman's explanation: PCP was introduced in 1958 as a clinical, intravenous anesthesia in humans. It was discontinued for human use in 1965 due to its addictive and agitation-inducing effects, but later released for use as a veterinary anesthetic. It exerts its pharmacological action via inhibition of NMDA receptors and produces a dissociated state. One can develop psychological dependence on the drug and experience tip episodes, psychosis, and possible death. This drug is no longer in use legally in the United States.
