You can overdose or die from inhalants, even after just one use, by:
Sudden sniffing death-heart beats quickly and irregularly, and then suddenly stops (cardiac arrest)
Asphyxiation-toxic fumes replace oxygen in the lungs so that a person stops breathing
Suffocation-air is blocked from entering the lungs when inhaling fumes from a plastic bag placed over the head
Convulsions or seizures-abnormal electrical discharges in the brain
Coma-the brain shuts down all but the most vital functions
Choking-inhaling vomit after inhalant use
Injuries-accidents, including driving, while intoxicated
