Kids Who Use Inhalants
Inhalants are substances whose vapors cause an intoxicating effect when inhaled. They act as depressants to the central nervous system.


Users take these substances by inhaling them through a paper or plastic bag, breathing them from a saturated rag or handkerchief or inhaling them directly from an aerosol can into the nose or mouth.


When someone inhales these substances, the user quickly becomes high and behaves in a manner similar to being drunk. Because of the ease with which many of these substances enter the blood and travel to brain cells, however, intoxication occurs more quickly than with alcohol.

What Happens When One Uses Inhalants? What Is Binging? Who Uses Inhalants? Why Does Inhalants Use Decline With Age? Why Do Young Kids Use Inhalants? What Are The Dangers Of Using Inhalants?
