Facts

  • The behavior of alcohol abusers and the consequences of that behavior are better indicators of alcoholism than how often or how much alcohol a person consumes alcohol.
  • Inhalants known to cause severe cause limb spasms and peripheral neuropathies are hexane, which is used in glues and gasoline and nitrous oxide, which is used in whipped cream dispensers and gas cylinders.
  • Women and low-body-weight males have a lesser capacity to break alcohol down in the same amount of time as a heavier male or female, resulting in higher blood alcohol concentration.
  • The long-term neuro-toxic effects, which can ultimately result from inhalant abuse, can include damage to the brain that is involved in controlling cognition, movement and vision.
