Do you have a link for the study? I'd like to read their results. Chronic use of poppers can lead to a condition called methemoglobinemia, which leads to challenges for the circulatory system to deliver oxygen throughout the body. Reduced mental capability is very common in such cases as the brain is starved for oxygen. Since I've only seen writeups talking about chronic use linked to methemoglobinemia, I imagine it's relatively rare.

 

 

In the case of poppers, it is a transient condition caused by oxidation of oxyhemoglobin, rendering it unable to deliver oxygen to the cells. As soon as the methemoglobin returns to its normal oxidation state, the hemoglobin is able to carry oxygen again. If you have ever gotten blue lips from sniffing poppers, you had methemoglobinemia. It certainly isn't a good idea to huff poppers enough to give yourself methemoglobinemia, but, if it happens, the condition corrects itself very quickly. That is, unless you keep sniffing the poppers. Blue lips is definitely a sign that you've had more than your share of poppers for the night.

And then there is poppers' first cousin, Maximum Impact! I had a client who would go through almost 2 cans of this in a night, it always concerned me because he had respiratory issues. He passed away somewhat suddenly and I hope he wasn't in the company of another escort and doing this when it happened. Poppers don't appeal to me, gives me a headache and makes my dick go limp, but I can understand the appeal and it can make it easier for the bottom when I'm trying to get inside.

This reminds me of stories I heard over the years about general anesthesia in dental offices during the 1920's and 1930's. The technique back then was when the patient started to turn blue the dentist knew that he had given just a bit too much so he would dial things back just a bit and that supposedly gave the correct and safe amount... Like yeah! Really! :eek:

 

Now in this day and age nobody would think of placing themselves in such a situation unless they were thinking with the wrong head that is. O.o

No, I have never met Dr. Scrivello of Little Shop of Horrors fame nor have I ever met Laurence Olivier. I know that it is hard to believe but this guy was actually my mentor and insiration:

The times I have taken poppers I have really enjoyed them. But because of other health concerns, the use had to be sparce. However I really liked the sexual rush that made me the focus of the attention and all things bigger than they actually may have been.

AKA "ethyl" or ethyl chloride. Ethyl is actually even better than poppers for relaxing guys' holes, but it scares me a little - decades ago, it was used for general anesthesia. I played with a guy some months ago whose hand was never very far from the can of ethyl. It worried me, but he seemed fine.

Love this topic!

 

You boys do not understand the times when poppers were Amyl Nitrate. One hit of this was wild. I remember the first hit. Imagine hugging a glory hole, with a hot guy on the other side, giving you an epic blow job, taking a long hit seconds before blowing your load. The experience is amazing and not to be repeated in this time of "Grinder."

I'm a guy who does enjoy his poppers, but I've noticed the same thing. They just don't hit me like they used to so I think taking some time off will help.

 

My personal favorites are "locker room" and "english royale."

Just wondering if one can get desensitized to Poppers. Been playing with toys recently and using them to enhance the experience. Probably nightly for a week and a half. Last couple of days not lasting as long or doing much of anything.

 

Is there a brand others think is really good?

As a fellow guy that likes to put things up my butt I have found that jungle juice platinum and British are pretty good. If your ever in sf and want poppers that will knock your socks off and your undies head over to mr s leather and ask for "brown bottle" at the register. If your in nyc you can swing by leathermen on Christopher street and pick up something very similar to what mr s sells.

Several years ago, they sold a brown bottle, that did indeed knock your socks off. Then, for a long while, they didnt' sell poppers at all and then they started selling a brown bottle again, which is very forgettable and very expensive. I think that some of the branded poppers might be better than the current Mr. S. brown bottle. And they will even tell you that the current product is from a different source than the original, kick-ass product that they used to sell.

I picked up a bottle at IML and I can attest to it knocking my undies right off

I'm glad it works so well for you.

 

Rudynate, I wholeheartedly concur with your comment here. A year or so ago, ChristW... wrote about Mr. S. Leather's supreme brown bottle. I purchased the concoction and was disappointed, for it did not "knock my socks off!" It was similar to the basic brands which are sold over the counter as well as through one's purchasing them via the net! So, I, too, am elated that the "brown bottle" "works so well" for Chris but

would not be one to purchase in the future!

 

As others and I wrote in some of the preceding posts, today's "poppers" are definitely NOT on par with the ones used during the 70s, 80s, and

perhaps very early 90s!

No, they're not. And they never will be. The government, for some reason, has poppers in their cross hairs.

 

There's a lot of scamming going on. There's one site that advertises "REAL AMYL NITRITE," for which they charge a bundle. I didn't see how they could be the real thing, but I took the bait anyway. Sure enough, they weren't. My theory is that they made poppers with n-amyl alcohol so that they could say that they were selling "REAL AMYL NITRITE" without running a afoul of the law for illegally selling a controlled substance. Real poppers are isoamyl nitrite made from isoamyl alcohol.

This has been a fun and fascinating thread. Quite a memory-bringer-backer. Eric, I am with you totally on that recipe for a great time: 420 + poppers. Haven't done the combo for years but have amazing recollections of the experience. I even remember the famous "tall brown bottles" of several years back - they were pretty good. But I'm wondering if for some of us who complain that they just don't seem to have the same effect - might this have something to do with the passage of time? Nothing really has the same effect for me that it did when I was in my twenties, so is it possible that this is one more manifestation of the maturation process? Gosh, I hope I'm wrong in this, and please don't hesitate to bitchslap me and tell me I'm wrong. (I just had one of those milestone birthdays so I'm feeling a little fragile. . . )

 

For what it's worth, I believe poppers are illegal in Massachusetts - they are considered a drug and you can't buy them. Several years ago I went to buy some when I was in MA and was told they couldn't sell them. The clerk noted that we could get married in MA (this was before last year's Supreme Court decision) but we couldn't buy poppers - it was pretty ironic at the time.

I was introduced to this a while ago by a clerk at an adult store. I spray a burst on a small towel and then inhale - I can't image spraying it directly. I've used the towel approach with poppers as well.

One thing I have noticed about ethyl (Maximum Impact) is that guys often think that it is some kind of spray poppers - the same thing as poppers, but in a spray form. Weird!

AHHHH YES! Pot and poppers, the original PNP.
