I react poorly to blood donation and have had these used on me, they are incredibly unpleasant. There’s no lasting harm, and they do work very well. Basically imagine a chemical burn throughout your nose, sinuses, and upper respiratory system that lasts 30 seconds. It works immediately and gets a very strong reaction
Huh. It sounds like TV had it right this time. I assumed smelling salts were a convenient plot device, rather than an actual thing.
Don’t most first aid kits have smelling salts?
I’ve never seen them before, honestly I wasn’t even aware these were a thing
I’ve never seen a first aid kid with smelling salts.
They should be in all first aid kits. Extremely long shelf lives, very stable and very useful.
Smelling salts are now a “new” thing. Take me out back like Old Yeller.
Kind Sir please fetch me the smelling salts I’ve got the vapours. 🪭
