SUMMARYNitrous oxide (N2O) misuse is widespread in the UK. Although it is well-known that it can cause devastating myeloneuropathy, psychiatric presentations are poorly described. There is little understanding of who it affects, how it presents, its mechanism of action and principles of treatment. We begin this article with a case study. We then review the literature to help psychiatrists understand this area and deal with this increasing problem, and make diagnosis and treatment recommendations. We describe a diagnostic pentad of weakness, numbness, paraesthesia, psychosis and cognitive impairment to alert clinicians to the need to urgently treat these patients. Nitrous oxide misuse is a pending neuropsychiatric emergency requiring urgent treatment with vitamin B12 to prevent potentially irreversible neurological and psychiatric symptoms.

I began my day at 5:00 a.m., traveling sixty miles across the desert floor of the Tularosa basin in Southern New Mexico to my job as Director of Behavioral Sciences at the world's largest captive chimpanzee facility. At any given time, we house approximately 525 chimpanzees and 500 macaque monkeys. My arrival on site was heralded by the squall of macaque monkeys from their corn crib enclosures, which dotted the eastern flank of the facility like beach cabanas and lent a note of texture to an otherwise barren landscape. Although it was just like any other work day each week, this in itself, was enough to caution me from saying that it was an ordinary day.
