Info from Frank website

What are poppers?

Poppers are usually found in the form of a liquid chemical (a nitrite) sold in a small bottle. Commonly, the chemical is alkyl nitrite. Other nitrites like amyl nitrite (and butyl nitrite and isobutyl nitrite) have also used been used. Nitrites dilate the blood vessels and allow more blood to get to the heart.

The key effects of poppers can include:

•A short, sharp head-rush like high.

•Enhanced sexual experiences.

•Chemical burns to body tissues – with the development of a rash around the nose and mouth, and/or irritation of the nose and throat.

•Feelings of sickness, faintness and weakness.

•Death – if swallowed; or if used by individuals with heart problems.

Hope this helps

Gay men use poppers.. it loosens up the anus apparently. Tried some once but I should have been laying down and not standing up at the time as I lost my balance, crashed into the bedside cabinet of the couple I was playing with and put a deep scratch right across my back. Looked like I'd been whipped. Never again.

I've never used them, but The smell reminds me of the gas that dentists used for anaesthetics, and that made me feel nauseous enough without shoving it up my hooter..

Headache in a bottle..lol

No being serious, they aren't what they used to be, the original Amyl Nitrite was banned so they now use other substitutes which are chemically similar but are much less potent(less rush feeling).

Much like all drugs(whether legal or not) you take them knowing the risks and make your own judgements.

be aware they lower your blood pressure so if you are running naturally low without realising it could cause you a heart attack

mr b runs naturally low so it makes me rather mad when peeps use them near us at clubs one guy got the sharp edge of my tongue one time when he just waved it under hubbys nose without even asking if he wanted it ffs

agree wholeheartedly with the drugs are for idiots comment, can't lie i did dabble with various ones when young but i'm first to admit i was a first class idiot for doing so

Now before all the experts jump down our throat we are not advocating their use just letting you have our experience.

Only used once, we met a guy for a 3some and he brought some along, He and Bev used it, it appeared to give him plenty of stamina and a very hard erection, made Bev very horny and vocal when he was fucking her very hard, downside was she said she had blanks in her memory the next day of all that had happened, was very horny to watch, but like I said wouldnt tell nayone to use, we are all adults and must make our own decisions, we havnt used since by the way.

OK so that's your opinion based on?

Looking at the experts _iew alcohol and cigerettes are by far the worst drugs(by death rate) but these are the most used drug out there. If we look at other drugs such as Canabis/Marijuana and Esctasy they have very few deaths given the amount of people taking them.

There are infact may people(ex war vets from Vietnam etc..) who have infact taken Heroin for may years with no problem what so ever.

I don't mind admitting I have smoked dope for well over 33 years with no issue and in my clubbing days took Ecstasy, with no ill effect.

Don't forget there are drugs users and drug abusers any drug can be abused, including prescription drugs, and it's the abuse not use that causes the problem.

By knowing the risks you can take an informed choice, much like swinging even using a condom you still are at risk of HIV(through failure or mis-use) but if you know this you can make an informed choice, life is full of risks!

poppers are NOT a muscle relaxant! i work in a sex shop, i sell the horrible things and they are just a rush drug, like a mild form of i am informed. but they are ultimately one of the most dangerous drugs around. for anyone with respiratory/circulatory conditions especially but

i know someone who was just 18 who had no history of heart problem who was put in intensive care because of the use of poppers/amyl-nitrates.

steer clear and as someone said before, get your rush from the sex, good sex is the best drug in the world!

For a group of people (Swingers) that indulge in a naturally risky activity (sex with strangers) - there are some incredibly pompous _iews on these threads:

1) Poppers are NOT an illegal drug. If they were dangerous they would have been banned long ago by any one of our recent Nanny State governments.

2) They provide a short term rush which has an effect of total relaxation and loss of inhibitions.

3) Are there risk factors? Yes Poppers lower blood pressure so should not be used by people taking Viagra or people with abnormally, naturally low blood pressure. For normal healthy people there will be no ill effects.

Drug policy and drug information is a complete joke in this country and we are long overdue some factual information on the true risk factors of many drugs that are currently illegal yet are far safer than alcohol and tobacco.

What do people mean when they say "get high in a safer way"????

It sounds like your suggesting taking something else unless you're on about the natural high your body gives you, release of endorphins or adrenaline.

If you're on about taking something else then they all have their inherrant risks. Even Viagra has it's risks which is why it's not openly available to anyone.

Not being a scientist or anything but from my opinion poppers is just as dangerous as Viagra. Read into that as you will.

I have tried it in the past. Didn't particularly like it. It gives you a pounding head.

poppers are lush as long as you take them in moderation and dont take the pish oot them. ill make a £10 bet with any guy in here who after having a sniff or three while watching a porno and getting a bj from his missus dont think it was amazing ! it lets you tune right into your partner and you become you sensual and aroused its out of this world. but thats only my opinion oh and my wifes ..and if we are talking about the legal or moral side of it all ! how many of you guys take the wee blue pill when you dont really need it??? please dont be offended by what ive written here but for a bunch swingers who like to live on the risky side of life !!!!

thank god for an informed answer.

poppers make me giggle like an idiot, and can make orgasms very very intense...and as someone who has spectacuar orgasms already...thats intense...i never liked the smell though so rarely indulged, now they have been altered...to make them safer i think...i dont really bother.

How black is your kettle?

Many things in life are more dangerous than taking the odd sniff of poppers. I sometimes do but not always. The last meet I had I didn't use at all despite having the bottle beside the bed.

I would not advocate taking dangerous drugs but some of the posts above are scaremongery in its most basic form.

I agree with those that say sex and arousal is the biggest natural high you can get. Sometimes you can't beat endorphins and adrenalin.

I did not know though that the amyl nitrate had been banned and replaced with some synthetic substance and it stacks up because we used to fool around with amyl when we were teenagers, not during sex...just getting high but I have noticed that the modern variety does burn the nose if you allow it to come into contact with your nostril, and that can't be good. But like one poster put....cigarettes and alcohol are insanely dangerous in comparison to poppers but the government would not dare ban those because of the revenue they generate in duties. And how about pastimes like playing rugby. I know a bloke whose son was paralysed playing rugby and is now confined to a wheelchair.

Each to their own, we are all adults. But those who say they have never touched or wouldn't touch drugs...obviously never had a cup of tea in their lives because caffiene is another very powerful drug that we all take for granted.

Anything can be dangerous if abused, like crossing the road with your eyes wide shut. Peace

I've taken drugs over the years, legal and illegal, and am still pretty healthy. We don't all look like extras from Trainspotting you know!

And poppers aren't illegal. Obviously you have some sort of problem with them judging from your overwrought reaction, but they are available openly in shops, so pretty sure the rozzers are aware us dreadful druggy types are taking them.

because i would loose the job for a start.. which as much as i am trying to get another job wouldn't be a good thing without another one to go to.

Also its peoples choice, and have i at times felt bad for selling these things ?? yes, every time someone leaves. but i had the same problem when i was working in a shop selling alcohol to alcoholics.. at the end of the day its legal and its their choice.. doesnt mean i have to like it or it is any less dangerous..

Who knows

First came across this at work back in the early 80`s. Place where I worked did copper plating and the pre tratment phase was to clean the metal with cyanide. Amyl nitrate was then (and to a certain extent still is)the recognised instant antidote for cyanide poisoning and was kept in the medical kit. Guess what .. it was administerd by inhalation.

Tends not to be as widely used nowadays due to first aider require specific training to administer , also only has a shelf life of 6 months. Having said that when the first aider was disposing of the out of date ampules by smashing them down the toilet (yep I kid you not., obviously COSHH regs didnt apply then)there was always a sudden influx of people needing to use the facilities lol

It's true you are entitled to an opinion. No point in making you take them as you are convinced that they are more poisonous than strychnine. But I do find it odd that you consider them more harmful than alcohol as far more people have died from drinking alcohol than inhaling poppers.

Another occasional popper user here... but only in the comfort of my own home and not in a club scenario. I see it as another sex aid in my enjoyment of my activities.

They are NOT an illegal drug sold freely and openly at many a petrol station around my area.

I don't smoke and I very rarely drink... but yes I may be the devil reincarnated for making a very informed decision to indulge in poppers from time to time... whoops!

Never abused your body?

Healthy?

So let's get this right. To be healthy and to be accurate:

You don't smoke or drink alcohol, nor do you over-eat and you exercise around 40 minutes a day?

If you do smoke, drink, over-eat and fail to get the required exercise then you are abusing your body and at risk of organ disease and diabetes. Less than 5% of the people in this country are at their medically correct BMI AND take the appropriate exercise to produce sufficient insulin.

I suggest that like most of us - you are in the 95% not the 5% but you have made your own choices about the way that you abuse your body.

the problem i have is not with poppers per se, but with some of the people who indulge. poppers give me a really horrible, sick headache that lasts for ages and makes me feel very anti social and not at all like playing. so when someone produces a bottle and either doesn't ask, or asks as the lid is taken off if i mind then i get grumpy!

i have also been on the receiving end of a bottle shoved under my nose without warning!

yes they are legal, but they do have serious health implications for some and unpleasant side effects for others. if you are a poppers fan, like with all aspects of swinging, give the rest of us the opportunity to make an informed and knowing choice!

Personaly, I wouldnt go near them nor would I be in a play situation where they are in use. My choice. However I also hold true that everyone is entitled to their own personal choice and if Poppers are your thing then go for it.

AS a footnote though - more people die from alchohol and cigarettes thats true - but that takes years of hard work and dedication in most cases! Plus, no one ever burnt through their septum sniffing a bottle of Chablis.

Mr C"

Oh the good ol 'two wrongs do make a right' argument...

I base my opinion about drugs on the number of kids I see sometimes on a weekly basis who have fallen victim to drugs..

Not privileged kids who's mummy and daddy can afford some nice private treatment for their little angels, but kids with no chance of help or support..and lucky if they have both parents at home anyway.

If you saw a kid who ended up in a local mental hospital because he smoked to much dope one night who may not be so quick to proudly state how its never affected you..

It never ceases to amaze me how people who smoke dope can always find some figures that state they smoking dope has little risk..and then go on to push the 'well you take paracetamol dont you?..thats a drug' argument out..

I worked with a youngish fella who loved to tell everyone how much skunk he had smoked the night before and how it didnt effect him...two minutes after being given an instruction he was asking what he needed to do..no, didnt affect him did it..

I see rising crime figures on TV..and drugs play a part in them from top to bottom..

Oh and there maybe be many ex Vietnam vets (what the relevance is to them I dont know???) who have taken it for years with no problem..

There are also many more people who have taken it and ended up dead or on the scrape heap within a month..

Dont get me wrong, im not on some crusade to save the poor souls who get ruined on drugs..its their problem, not mine, let em wreck their lives...im not interested in skag heads or the 'bong on' brigade..

But I do have strong (personal) opinions about taking drugs..and they are just my opinions.

--------------------------------------

How black is your kettle?

Many things in life are more dangerous than taking the odd sniff of poppers. I sometimes do but not always. The last meet I had I didn't use at all despite having the bottle beside the bed.

I would not advocate taking dangerous drugs but some of the posts above are scaremongery in its most basic form.

--------------------------------------

My pots and kettles are nice and shiny..

I cant see how its scare mongering when nearly everyone on here has stated that poppers have made them feel ill dizzy, headaches, racing hearts etc..

Surely people should know what that can expect if the decide to take them?

Poppers are rubbish nowadays. Proper poppers are excellent. The trick is to take a sniff about 30 - 40 seconds before you ejaculate or orgasm. If you are feeling the poppers buzz as you cum it increases the feelings 100% and it will be the best oregasm feeling you have ever had.

closer than you think

Potentially lethal............... My word you really are on the case with Poppers aren't you.

Driving a car and riding a motorcycle/bicycle is lethal.

Over eating is lethal.

Lethal....... God, what are you on."

Yes potentially lethal if you have health problems you are unaware of - I'm sure there are many people who haven't had their blood pressure checked recently and using poppers can be lethal especially if you have low blood pressure.

Also some people have undiagnosed heart problems! But it's up to the individual if they want to partake in the use of them but make sure any other people/persons present are ok with them being used

"We have seen people take drugs and left a meet, and up until now we seen poppers in the same league as soke, meow, speed etc. But now wer intriuged! Might have to purchase some!

if its not for us then so be it "

Having seen alcohol induced aggression appear in Clubs I think that I can safely say that I would not walk away from a meet where alcohol was banned and ecstacy and/or marijuana was available. Rather be in a Club/house/room full of loved up and chilled people than pissed people.

We use them occasionally, you can get the old ones from mainland Europe still and on mail order. We won't use them around people who would be uncomfortable with them.

The ones in the UK have had the formula changed about three times in the last 5 years, one of those changes was actually later made illegal.

I've seen alot of people on the clubbing scene (both swinging and regular clubs) take all sorts in the last ten years.

I've seen people take too much alcohol and people take too many drugs. Moderation for many people can be a very hard line for some.

We are NOT an advocate of people getting totally off their faces when we are out partying, be that on alcohol or something else, just because we don't think that is the way you should behave in such an enviroment, (or any enviroment) especially not at a club on the scene.

But at the same token, each person should educate themselves and make their own choices while respecting those of others.

They are legal same as alcohol and cigarettes

I've used the on and off for years

Mainly at saunas

They are not for everyone and discussing there use provokes as much emotion in some as drinking and smoking does

But at the end of the day it's your call

Like I said I like em and they are legal

Having tried them in the past, got to say they give you a nice little rush.

Never had any side effects with them.

I dont go out my way to use them and I wouldnt, but sometimes that wee high is just nice.

exactly .... I'm not saying you shouldn't use them if you want to, but knowing that I have heart problems I would hope that people who do want to use them (especially in a club situation) have the courtesy to ask other people if they are ok with them - I can then leave to save my life

I have searched in vain for any evidence of the likelihood of these risks being measured. You're right, the possibility exists that somebody with low blood pressure might use poppers and die, but I can't find any evidence of it actually happening - like being killed by a meteorite it is possible but unlikely.

You;re right though - regular BP checks are a good idea for anyone planning strenuous activity.

Oddly, most people don't talk about the most concrete risk of poppers I can identify, which is cases of people suffering damage to their eyesight after using a type of poppers containing isopropyl nitrite (I had to track that down in the New England Journal of Medicine).

There's been a lot of fuss over poppers over the years because of the association between poppers, KS and AIDS, which did a good job of demonstrating that many journos and some doctors didn't get the difference between causation and correlation.

If you do have some epidemiological numbers for deaths from LBP or cardiac arrest after use of poppers I'd love to see them....

healthy people can have allergies... and healthy people do often suffer from adverse side effects to prescription drugs ( thats why they have a side effects list on the information booklet)

that seemed to be a needlessly digging comment..
