When inhalant use continues over a period of time, a user will probably
develop a tolerance to inhalants. This means that the user will need more
frequent use and greater amounts of a substance to achieve the effect desired.
This, in turn, leaves a user at much greater risk of suffering from possible
negative effects of the drug, such as liver, lung, and kidney impairment, brain
damage, nervous system damage, and even death.
Physical dependence can also result, and when a user tries to give up the
inhalant habit, withdrawal symptoms such as hallucinations, headaches, chills,
delirium tremors, and stomach cramps may occur.
