First used in the 19 th century to treat chest pain, they are now a common accoutrement of a wild night at the club, or in the bedroom. Inhale, and they smooth muscles surrounding the body’s blood vessels, relaxing minds and sphincters. The label tells us: “use this product only for its intended use”, yet the variety of false “intended uses” advertised on poppers bottles is in turn far surpassed by the sheer number of brands to choose from.Īs a chemical class, alkyl nitrites (AKA poppers) are vasodilators.
