Are smelling salts the same as ammonia inhalants?
In many cases, yes. The terms smelling salts and ammonia inhalants are often used interchangeably because both refer to products that release ammonia vapor when activated. While traditional smelling salts were commonly packaged in reusable bottles, many modern products - including Snap Labs products - are available as individually sealed, single-use crushable ampules for convenient storage, transport, and use when needed.

Usage:
Are smelling salts single use?
Many modern smelling salts are designed for a single use. Each ammonia inhalant is sealed inside an individual glass ampule protected by a paper sleeve. When the ampule is crushed, the inner glass vial breaks and releases ammonia vapor. After activation, the ampule should be discarded. Unlike traditional bottled smelling salts, individually sealed ampules provide consistent activation and convenient storage until needed.

How long do ammonia inhalants last?
When stored properly and left unopened, modern single-use ammonia inhalants have a shelf life of up to 5 years. Each ampule is individually sealed to help protect the contents until activation. Once an ampule has been crushed, it is intended for a single use and should be discarded after use.
How should ammonia inhalants be stored?
Store ammonia inhalants in a cool, dry location away from excessive heat, moisture, and direct sunlight. Keeping the ampules in their original storage jar helps protect them during storage and transport. Always inspect the packaging before use, and discard any ampules that appear damaged or have already been activated.
