Gas and vertigo: The effects of nitrous oxide gas dissipate in 5-10 mins after the gas is turned off. We usually turn off the gas after the painful parts of the procedure are finished. This begins the clearing of the anesthetic prior to dismissal of the patient. We give straight oxygen for at least 10 mins after shutting off the nitrous oxide.
