    printer friendly version

    Question: Are sniffing whiteout and magic markers illegal?

    Answer: Inhaling toxic vapors is commonly referred to as 'Huffing' and it is against the law in Arizona.

    It is against the law to knowingly breathe, inhale, or drink a vapor-releasing toxic substance. Common things that fit this definition are glue, spray paint, gasoline, etc.

    There are also regulations regarding the sale of inhalants. Using or selling these substances is regarded as a class 5 felony or a class 1 misdemeanor depending on the seriousness of the offense. (ARS 13-3403).

    Also see more information on this topic under substances in the LawForKids.org Laws section.

    Well today at school I wasn't dared or anything by a friend, but I wanted to know what it was like. But instead of sniffing or 'huffing' it I placed a dot on my tounge and swallowed it. It wasn't the brush one's it was the pen one. Now I'm being harrased by teachers and everything saying I'm taking drugs, and my mom is very disapointed in me. That same day I crushed and swallowed one short piece of a lead pencil lead. I'm afraid something's going to happen to me, since I fell asleep all through fifth period, and had a major headache during sixth. Anyone got some answers?
