👉 Mixed fumes refer to a complex blend of various volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that can be inhaled, often from sources like solvents, paints, adhesives, and cleaning agents. These fumes arise when different chemicals interact, sometimes producing irritants, headaches, dizziness, or even long-term health issues such as respiratory problems or neurological damage. The mixture can vary widely depending on the specific substances present, leading to a unique set of symptoms and health risks for each individual exposed. Proper ventilation and protective measures are crucial to mitigate the harmful effects of these fumes.
