Best Poppers Safety Tips

Poppers are a great tool to achieve a euphoric, dream-like state when on a night out or during sex, but with that inherently there’s potential danger if you mishandle them or don’t know what you’re doing. Luckily, we give you all you need to know on buying, handling, and consuming poppers safely all in one place.  

Sourcing Poppers 

Getting your poppers from a trusted online retailer or shop is the first step in ensuring your poppers experience is as risk-free as can be. Due to the common misconceptions and intricacies of the legality of poppers (link to are poppers legal blog when uploaded) in the UK, there is a black market for poppers. These are known to consist of cheap, harsh chemicals at a low purity which make them exponentially more dangerous than the poppers you can buy at Room Aromas, for example. In addition, these poppers may be past their use-by date, or just be labelled as poppers whilst actually containing something completely different. Beware! 

Poppers Combinations 

Poppers are vasodilators, meaning they increase blood flow and reduce blood pressure. This gives them euphoric rush they’re loved for. However, this does mean combining them with other substances or medications can have serious health risks, and should be avoided in all circumstances. The main no-no is erective dysfunction medications such as Viagra and Cialis. In addition, if you’re taking medication for any cardiovascular problems (or hypertension), it’s best to avoid poppers. If you’re unsure whether poppers are safe to consume for you, make sure to always thoroughly do your own research. This WebMD page on poppers is a good starting point. 

Consumption/handling 

The final major thing to consider when using poppers to protect yourself is how you actually handle and use them. Firstly, poppers should never be drunk, under any circumstances, only inhaled. If you or someone around you does consume them, seek medical help immediately. Secondly, remember poppers are both highly flammable and highly corrosive. Keep poppers away from fire, and importantly, smoking and cigarettes. This can often slip your mind when in a poppers-using environment, but mistakes can be fatal. Additionally, make sure you know what you’re doing if some of the poppers liquid burns your skin: wash the affected area with soap and cold water, and if there are still problems after a few weeks, see a medical professional.
