What happens when you drink vape juice?

Drinking vape juice can be harmful and potentially dangerous. Vape juice, also known as e-liquid or e-juice, is intended to be vaporized and inhaled through an electronic cigarette or vaporizer device.

The ingredients in vape juice typically include a mixture of propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin, flavorings, and nicotine (although some varieties are nicotine-free). Ingesting these ingredients by drinking vape juice can lead to a range of adverse health effects, including:

1. Nausea and vomiting: Consuming vape juice can cause nausea and vomiting due to the chemical composition of the liquid.
2. Nicotine toxicity: If the vape juice contains nicotine, consuming it can lead to nicotine toxicity, which can cause symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, confusion, seizures, and even coma in severe cases.
3. Chemical burns: The ingredients in vape juice can be corrosive and cause chemical burns in the mouth, throat, and digestive system.
4. Respiratory problems: Inhaling vaporized vape juice can cause respiratory problems, and ingesting it can also cause issues with breathing.
5. Poisoning: Drinking vape juice can be toxic and potentially fatal, particularly if consumed in large quantities.

It’s important to note that vape juice should never be ingested intentionally. If someone accidentally ingests vape juice, they should seek medical attention immediately.
