The substances inhaled are often common household products that contain volatile solvents, aerosols, or gases. In this toxicology episode, Lisa Booze discusses the common inhalants seen, toxic effects, signs and symptoms of inhalant toxicity, and most importantly what to do when seeing a case of inhalant use and who to call first in such cases of emergency.
