Facts On Supplemental Oxygen Safety And Side Effects

Is supplemental oxygen safe to use? Are there any side effects? If used as directed, it is completely safe. Supplemental oxygen is used by both healthy people and those that require it for medical purposes. Before using supplemental oxygen, many ask if there are safety concerns or side effects.

In general, there are a few important facts to know about supplemental oxygen usage:

  • Supplemental oxygen (both medical-grade and recreational) is safe and effective when used properly.
  • Supplemental oxygen that is prescribed by a doctor should be used as directed.
  • The most important safety tip is that while oxygen is not a flammable gas, it supports combustion, so never use or store it around open flames.
  • People exposed to high concentrations of pure oxygen for extended periods of time are at risk for oxygen toxicity, but this is extremely rare.
