12 Year Olds More Likely to Use Potentially Deadly Inhalants than Cigarettes or Marijuana

  Share This Story

Young people sniff products such as refrigerant from air conditioning units, aerosol computer cleaners, shoe polish, glue, air fresheners, hair sprays, nail polish, paint solvents, degreasers, gasoline or lighter fluids. Youngsters intentionally inhale these substances to get high. Most parents are not aware that use of inhalants can cause "Sudden Sniffing Death" - immediate death due to cardiac arrest - or lead to addiction and other health risks.
