There has been so much focus on suicide by hydrogen sulfide in automobiles. This presentation will focus on all of the types of chemically induced suicides, how to respond, and how to treat these toxic cases. From the new use of Carbon Monoxide to the recent trend of using Sodium Nitrate and Caffeine. In addition, Cyanide, Hydrogen Sulfide, and Exit Bags (simple asphyxiation) will also be discussed.
