While you're using:
Start low, go slow
Inhaling too much can result in coma or death, so start with a small amount and wait before you use again.
Try not to use on your own
It's best not to use if you’re on your own or if you’re in a position where there is nobody you could call for help. A buddy system - where one person inhales and waits until the peak effects have worn off before the other person uses - makes it more likely that someone can help if someone needs it.
Try not to mix
Taking drugs or drinking alcohol while chroming can increase your risk of harm.
Avoid physical activity after use
Completing physical activity after chroming can increase the risk of heart attacks and serious harm.
Keep the area well-ventilated
Use in well-ventilated spaces which are away from potentially dangerous areas like roads, rooftops, or rivers. Solvents are also extremely flammable when inhaled and exhaled, so it’s safest to keep them away from naked flames (including cigarettes).
The recovery position
The recovery position helps to prevent someone unconscious from choking on vomit. If someone is unconscious, putting them in the recovery position, getting help if needed, and staying with them will help to reduce the risk of harm.
