MODERATORS
Inhalants in general are not good for you. Vaping introduces water, smoking introduces ash/smoke. There are no benefits to vaping or smoking. Unless you are being prescribed it by a doctor. I mean drugs are not good for you. But if you are going to, your body can usually deal with it well with moderation. Edibles are better than inhalants.
I really wish there was like an asthma puffer delivery system where it is aerosolized rather than heated and burned. I dunno if thats possible but it would be amazing to simply have a puffer, like how there's inhaled versions of narcotic painkillers like fentanyl with legitimate medical indications and usage.
I don't know what you are talking about. I don't know of any legitimate inhaled drugs that aren't for treating the lungs.
Are you maybe thinking of narcan? It can treat an overdose of fentanyl.
Every anaesthsiologist will tell you that there a few inhaled drugs, such as sevoflurane, isoflurane and desflurane. We use them every day. They are vaporized and inhaled.
Those are not treating anything, are not meant for habitual use, and aren't available for individuals.
Sevoflurane can be used as add-on treatment for Asthma in Life-threatening cases. But I know that‘s beside the point and I agree that there is no vaporized treatment for individuals.
