When drugs of abuse are smoked, volatile components and pyrolysis material escape into the atmosphere. Depending on the local environment, bystanders may be exposed to the drug by passive inhalation of the contaminated air. Present studies are underway to develop means of heating drugs of abuse in a controlled environment and measuring air levels of drug in order to evaluate this potential hazard. Initially, free-base cocaine "crack" and methamphetamine "ice" will be evaluated for potential passive inhalation exposure. Unknowing drug exposure could be dangerous to unsuspecting bystanders, particularly to small children. These studies will establish limits of exposure to volatile components of drugs under controlled conditions.

当吸食滥用药物时，挥发性成分和热解 物质逃逸到大气中。 根据当地的环境， 旁观者可能通过被动吸入 污染的空气。 目前正在进行研究，以开发加热滥用药物的方法 在一个受控的环境中，测量空气中的毒品含量， 评估该潜在危害。 最初，自由基可卡因“快克”和 甲基苯丙胺“冰”将被评估为潜在的被动吸入 exposure. 不知情的药物接触可能会对不知情的旁观者造成危险， 特别是对小孩子来说。 这些研究将确定 在受控条件下接触药物的挥发性成分。
