"A dangerous gas and its canisters, designed for whipping cream and linked to two deaths and hundreds of hospitalisations, is being offered for delivery across Queensland.
Nangs — also known as nozzies, bulbs, and whippets — are small bulbs that contain nitrous oxide. The gas in the small canisters is often misused as a recreational drug. People ingest the dangerous product for a 20-30 second high in which the user may feel euphoric and relaxed."
