Inhalants Abuse
The term inhalants refers to a wide range of chemicals that produce an intoxicating effect when consumed in vapor form through the nose and trachea. Users inhale the vapors, an act known as huffing, using everyday household products or industrial chemical products that contain aerosols, gases or solvents. In some instances, certain pharmaceutical products, such as an inhaler used by an asthma patient, may be abused to achieve similar effects.
