Inhalants are dangerous and their use represents a vast abuse problem in the United States and abroad. At greatest risk of harm from these drugs are adolescents in their early teenage years. Although most inhalants are central nervous system (CNS) depressants, they do cause adverse medical effects on almost every organ system in the body. Both short- and long-term toxic effects occur. Short-term effects include diplopia, impaired memory, slurred speech, seizure, or even death from cardiac arrhythmias. Long-term chronic effects include permanent ataxias or sensorimotor peripheral neuropathies, blindness, cognitive impairment, and renal toxicity.
