AeroShot: Coming to a Store Near You!

AeroShot is a caffeine inhaler that allows you to inhale the caffeine that you would normally get in a cup of coffee in one puff of this breathable product. AeroShot has advertised to give you a pick-me-up when you find yourself running out of energy. The product's inhaled in the same way that asthma medication's inhaled through a "puffer." Senator Schumer is asking for the Food and Drug

Administration to take a look at this product as it's due out in stores next month, according to the Med India.

The debate about AeroShot carried over to "Fox and Friends" Tuesday morning as this caffeine inhaler is an over-the-counter item and offers no age restrictions to buy. It costs under $3 and packaged in a canister that would fit in any pants pocket, as it's about the size of a lipstick tube.

Democrat Charles Schumer wrote the FDA asking that they review the safety and legalities of the caffeine inhaler AeroShot. "The product is nothing more than a club drug designed to give users the ability to drink until they drop," Schumer said. According to the Washington Post, the FDA stopped sales of caffeinated alcoholic beverages after Schumer's urging. The drinks, that became linked to hospitalizations and deaths, were popular up until the time the FDA pulled them from the stores.
