Illicit use of modern volatile anaesthetics.

M Yamashita, A Matsuki, T Oyama.   

Abstract

Sixteen reported cases of abuse of modern volatile anaesthetics are summarized. Twelve of the sixteen subjects died. Halothane was ingested or injected intravenously for suicidal purpose, and sniffed for mood elevation. Abuse of modern volatile anaesthetics deserves more attention than it has received in the past.
