LOCALIZED BURNS. CADMIUM COMPOUNDS MAY CAUSE SALIVATION, CHOKING,
NAUSEA, PERSISTENT VOMITING, DIARRHEA, ABDOMINAL PAIN, DIZZINESS,
FAINTNESS. INHALATION: RESPIRATORY
IRRITATION/HEADACHE/NAUSEA/VOMITING. SKIN: CHEMICAL BURNS. EYES:
SEVERE IRRITATION & CHEMICAL BURNS.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:SEE INGREDIENTS.
