Detecting Inhalant Abuse

It can be hard to tell when a person is abusing inhalants. The signs might be very small. You might only notice the debris they leave behind or you may notice changes in their appearance or behavior. It may take being a detective and tracking down the real reason for changes.

Signs to watch for:

Inhalant use does not show up in usual drug tests, so other detection means must be used if inhalant abuse is suspected. Blood tests can show elevated liver enzymes after inhalant use. Some chemicals will show up in urine after chronic use.
