The easiest way to convince a croaker to write a âscriptâ for morphine is to fake gallstones or kidney stones.
Inhalant abuse (commonly called huffing) is the intentional inhalation of chemical vapors to attain a mental high or euphoric effect. A wide variety of substances, including many common household products, are abused by inhalers (see list below).
More serious consequences can include permanent damage to the brain and other organs or even death. Sudden cardiac death from fatal cardiac arrhythmias has been reported even in teen inhalant abusers. Death from huffing can occur upon the first time of use or after prolonged inhalant abuse. Other causes of death related to huffing include asphyxiation, aspiration, or suffocation. Chronic inhalant abuse may result in serious and sometimes irreversible damage to the user's heart, liver, kidneys, lungs, and brain. Brain damage may result in personality changes, diminished cognitive functioning, memory impairment, and slurred speech.
