I'm a recovering nitrous oxide addict so this is interesting, but people should proceed with caution. I didn't know laughing gas could be addictive for some people until it was too late. In the film Cider House Rules, Michael Caine plays a doctor addicted to ether for sleep https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cider_House_Rules_(film) Google result: Is chloroform stronger than ether? Fluothane and chloroform produced si…

I'm sure you know but PSA for those that don't: N2O is practically the only "safe" inhalant. Others, like gasoline, computer duster, urinal pucks, etc. have a risk of causing spontaneous heart attacks even in young healthy users. N2O's main physical risk is B12 deficiency, or asphyxiating if you use a mask.

> The poor efficacy of DMSO in assisting drug translocation through skin Oh yeah, for the observer gallery: The reason DMSO (and DMF, DMAc, HF, to an extent haloforms, and polar aprotic solvents in general) are dangerous is that they can dissolve and transport small molecules (under 1000 daltons, possibly more) through your skin and into the bloodstream. They go straight through nitrile, vinyl, and latex gloves. You…

I recently had to use a mitomycin C (very toxic) solution in DMSO, I was really paranoid to not spill any.

In addition to the risk of sudden death, even on the first use, they cause permanent brain damage with each use and regular use will reduce you to a gibbering shell of yourself from which you cannot recover -- and then you'll probably die. Recreational use is incredibly dangerous and this is one category that you should probably put into the "never use" group. Much worse than any common recreational drugs, including…

With fentynal getting into everything I'd say it's far more dangerous to take a substance orally or by injection that it is to inhale nitrous oxide which fentynal can't get into

Probably it would be more efficient to fill up balloons from a larger tank and then inhaling from the balloons. You can continuously breathe in and out from the same balloon multiple times for a few times until all the N2O has been absorbed by the body (hypothetically)

Giving a drug addict, who obviously doesn't want to be doing the drug anymore, advice on how to more efficiently do drugs seems at _best_ morally questionable. They've probably already worked out many other options and know this, but even so...just why do this?
