the pubmed article is like 5 years old so it’s entirely possible that it isn’t used anymore, but at the time they found it in JUUL pods and all sorts of other nicotine-based vape fluids. I think the best advice is probably what someone else down below said, try to get pharmaceutical-grade which means it only has chemicals deemed safe for human consumption.
Nope, PolyEtheleneGlycol (PG) is the carrier in Ventolin inhalers. Glycerine (VG) is something the body knows how to handle because it’s the chemical backbone of triglyceride, the most common form of human fat. VG and PG are the usual bases in ejuice.
Valid point for the majority of flavours though, although mint is likely fine and used in some medical contexts and for some reason tobacco flavour is prescribed in Australia, probably because it’s disgusting.
Then you know wrong, they were studied thoroughly for inhalation too, and were approved and used in kindergartens to prevent respiratory diseases. They are still used in asthma inhalers, and in stage fog machines in rooms crammed with people.
None of the branches that use these compounds very heavily have had problems, and they are still used.
albuterol inhalers use saline solution as a carrier.
Each milliliter of albuterol sulfate inhalation solution 0.083% contains 0.83 mg of albuterol (as 1 mg of albuterol sulfate) in an isotonic, sterile, aqueous solution containing sodium chloride; sulfuric acid is used to adjust the pH to between 3 and 5. Albuterol sulfate inhalation solution 0.083% contains no sulfiting agents or preservatives.

That sounds weird, that is in principle just salt water, and a vapor that is way harder to control. But just because an alternative exist, doesn’t mean other options are bad.
afaik the bases of e-juice were studied for ingestion, not inhalation.
Vitamin E acetate was found in grey market THC vapes as a thickener.
The 2019 panic was mostly caused by kids who got hospitalized, and didn’t want to admit they’d been using THC.

Don’t forget the massive fog machines, that are allowed indoor in crowded rooms, because of how safe they are.
the dose makes the poison as they say.
Absolutely 100%, even water is toxic. If you drink 4 liters of it in a short span of time, you will die.

Actually the bases are safe. They were tested extensively for inhalation in like the 50s or 60s.
