Musk’s ketamine use reportedly became so chronic last year that he began to experience some of the negative side effects of frequent consumption: namely, complaining of issues with his bladder.

Studies have shown that frequent recreational ketamine use can lead to a condition known as “ketamine-induced cystitis,” or inflammation of the bladder and urinary tract. A report published by the National Institute of Health states that “common KIC-related problems are urinary pain and discomfort, bladder epithelial barrier damage, reduced bladder storage and increased pressure, ureter stenosis, and kidney failure.”

“Furthermore, it becomes a vicious cycle when KIC patients attempt to manage their urinary pain with increased ketamine use,” the study adds.

Speculation about the extent of Musk’s drug use, and its effects on the management of his various companies as well as his foray into the federal government, has existed for some time now. Last year, The Wall Street Journal spoke to various sources within and around Musk’s companies who expressed concerns that the mogul’s regular drug use was not only a major liability to his businesses, but could spiral into a full-blown health crisis.
