nitrous oxide is a legitimate medical gas used for anesthesia and sedation. it acts directly on the central nervous system, interacting with specific neurotransmitter receptors to block pain and induce euphoria and relaxation.

computer duster is a compressed mixture of toxic industrial gasses. the high is a result of hypoxia.

the toxicity of computer duster is significantly higher than that of nitrous.

Nitrous Oxide is pretty harmless.
I’ve only seen videos of people in duster and it looks wild.
What is the actual psychoactive component in duster?
I’m in the UK so haven’t heard or seen much info on duster abuse.
