Inhalants

Are you inhaling your way to permanent health problems?  Millions of Americans, including many children and teens, abuse inhalants. Inhalants are substances that contain toxic chemical vapors that produce a "high" when inhaled.  Many people mistakenly believe inhalants are harmless and not really "drugs."

Glue, gasoline, spray paints, hair sprays, whipped cream aerosols (whippets), vegetable oil sprays and other household products are all commonly used as inhalants. Since these items are cheap and so easily available, inhalant abuse can often be a hidden problem.

If you or someone you love abuses inhalants, be aware that breathing in these chemical vapors has been shown to cause irreversible hearing loss, brain and bone marrow damage, as well as liver and kidney damage, coma, muscular spasms and death from suffocation or heart failure.

Inhalant abuse is serious and never should be taken lightly.  Whether you use inhalants recreationally or you are a chronic user, it is an extremely risky behavior!
