What is the diagnosis for Inhalant Intoxication?

A diagnosis of “inhalant intoxication” is based on:

  • Recent intended or unintended short-term, high-dose exposure to inhalant substances, including volatile hydrocarbons such as toluene or gasoline. (Examples of other inhalant substances include glues and adhesives, aerosol paint sprays, hair sprays, and paint thinners).
  • Significant problematic behavioral or psychological changes (such as belligerence, assaultiveness, apathy, or impaired judgement) that developed during, or shortly after, exposure to inhalants.
  • Two or more of the following symptoms developed during, or shortly after, inhalant use or exposure:
    • Dizziness
    • Rapid eye movements
    • Incoordination
    • Slurred speech
    • Unsteady gait
    • Lethargy
    • Depressed reflexes
    • Psychomotor retardation
    • Tremor
    • Generalized muscle weakness
    • Blurred vision or seeing double
    • Stupor or coma
    • Euphoria

The symptoms are not attributable to another medication condition or mental disorder, including intoxication with another substance.
