Ammonia inhalants, commonly known as smelling salts, represent a specific product formulation and traditional reflex stimulant grouping rather than a distinct, systematically categorized therapeutic drug class.
Typically formulated as crushable ampules containing diluted ammonia and alcohol solutions, they work by releasing noxious ammonia vapor that sharply irritates the sensory nerve endings of the upper respiratory mucosa.
This irritation triggers an involuntary inhalation reflex that stimulates the medullary respiratory and vasomotor centers, briefly increasing ventilation and heart rate.
Clinically, they are used as an emergency first-aid countermeasure for the temporary prevention and relief of vasovagal syncope, lightheadedness, and fainting.
