Aerosol addiction.
A case of dependency on prescribed pressurised aerosols in a patient with asthma and mild mental handicap is reported. The majority of reported cases involve young asthmatics, abuse being reported mainly using salbutamol inhalers although other inhalers have also given cause for concern. The agent of addition is uncertain although it may be the fluorinated hydrocarbons used as propellants, rather than the active substance itself.
