Sažetak (hrvatski)

Poppers is a slang term for a group of synthetic psychoactive
drugs, among which the most popular are amyl-nitrite and isopropyl-
nitrite. The increasing trend in their consumption represents a major
public health problem. A wide range of side effects are being registered, with
headache, facial flushing, increased heart rate, orthostatic hypotension and syncope
being the most common as well as methemoglobinemia and visual disturbance.
In contemporary society using poppers for enhancing sexual pleasure
can be a cause for concern, especially when combined with other kind of sexual
enhancement supplements. Pharmacists, as the most accessible and frequently
visited members of health care team, have important role in prevention as well as
education on unwanted side effects of drugs, as well as food supplements which
act as sexual enhancement substances and can lead to serious clinical effects
when combined with poppers.
