Recreational nitrous oxide use in France in 2022: Results from a nationwide representative sample of adults

We estimated that in 2022 three-quarters of adults in France were aware of recreational N<sub>2</sub>O use, and that 4.3% used it in their lifetime; prevalence was highest in 18-29-year-olds. To implement successful interventions to reduce N<sub>2</sub>O-related risks, its use in specific contexts needs to be explored. Moreover, representative studies focusing exclusively on adolescents and young adults are needed to acquire an in-depth understanding of N<sub>2</sub>O-related practices.

Abstract

We estimated that in 2022 three-quarters of adults in France were aware of recreational N<sub>2</sub>O use, and that 4.3% used it in their lifetime; prevalence was highest in 18-29-year-olds. To implement successful interventions to reduce N<sub>2</sub>O-related risks, its use in specific contexts needs to be explored. Moreover, representative studies focusing exclusively on adolescents and young adults are needed to acquire an in-depth understanding of N<sub>2</sub>O-related practices.
