Inhalant Drugs

Growing up, the author's father was unable to fully fulfill his responsibilities as a father due to his involvement with illegal drugs. Without experiencing proper fatherhood, the author found it difficult and sad. The document then discusses inhalant drugs, which are volatile substances that produce chemical vapors which can be inhaled to induce psychoactive effects. Examples of inhalants include volatile solvents found in glues and paints, aerosols in spray paints and deodorants, gases in medical anesthetics and household products, and nitrites which dilate blood vessels. The author concludes by warning about always abusing available substances and encouraging wise decision making.

GROWING UP MY DAD DIDN’T ABLE TO TAKE HIS FULL RESPONSIBILITY AND

OBLIGATIONS WITH ME AS HIS CHILD, BECAUSE MY DAD GOT INVOLVED WITH


ILLEGAL DRUGS. GROWING UP WITH NOT EXPERIENCING THE FATHERHOOD IS
DIFFICULT AND YET SAD. HI GOOD AFTERNON I RICA SHY P ALVAREZ AND LET’S
TALK ABOUT “INHALANT DRUGS”.

INHALANT DRUGS- the term "inhalants" is used to describe volatile


substances that produce chemical vapors that can be inhaled to induce
a psychoactive, or mind-altering, effect.

-WHAT ARE THE THINGS WE DO THAT TRIGGERS PHYSOACTIVE?

-it’s when you always drink alcohol it can cause you a large disease
and affect your brain.

TYPES OF INHALANTS:

volatile solvents, aerosols, gases, and nitrites.

Volatile solvents are liquids that vaporize at room temperature. They


are found in a multitude of inexpensive, easily available products used
for common household and industrial purposes.

EX. GLUES, PAINTS, GASOLINE. Etc.

Aerosols are sprays that contain propellants and solvents. They include
spray paints, deodorant and hair sprays, vegetable oil sprays for
cooking, and fabric protector sprays.
Gases include medical anesthetics as well as gases used in household
or commercial products. Medical anesthetics include ether, chloroform,
halothane, and nitrous oxide (commonly called "laughing gas"). Nitrous
oxide is the most abused of these gases. Other household or
commercial products containing gases include butane lighters, propane
tanks, and refrigerants.

Nitrites are considered a special class of inhalants. Unlike most other


inhalants, which act directly on the central nervous system (CNS),
nitrites act primarily to dilate blood vessels and relax the muscles.
other inhalants used to alter mood, nitrites used primarily as sexual
enhancers.

Inhalant abusers will always abuse any available substance. So make


sure to always think right and think wise. This is the ending of our
report I hope everyone have something kept on their mind.
