The poppers bottle, warning signs and safety notes

Handling the bottle

The name comes from the short pop that old glass ampoules made when they were opened. Today, poppers come in small screw-top bottles.

Important: never drink, and keep the liquid away from skin, eyes and mouth. After use, seal the bottle right away so the aroma stays fresh.

Warning signs

Headaches, dizziness or head pressure are a result of the rapid drop in blood pressure and a warning sign. If symptoms persist, seek medical advice.

Accessories for the bottle

There are sniffer caps that screw onto the bottle. Sniffer caps and more are in poppers accessories.

Risks and safety notes

The central rules: never drink or swallow, and do not let the liquid touch skin, eyes or mucous membranes. Do not combine poppers with erectile dysfunction medication (PDE-5 inhibitors). Alcohol puts additional strain on your circulation. Open the bottle only in a well-ventilated room and never near open flames, because the liquid is highly flammable. With cardiovascular conditions or when taking blood-pressure medication, avoid poppers. Side effects in detail are on the page poppers effects and general information, and the key rules are on the safety notes page.
