MAY RESULT IN BURNING, ITCHING, REDNESS & DERMATITIS. EYES: LIQUID
& VAPOR CONTACT PRODUCES INTENSE STINGING & BURNING SENSATIONS. IT
HAS BEEN REPORTED THAT PROLON GED CONTACT TO THE LIQUID MAY CAUSE
TEMPORARY DAMAGE TO THE EYES, BUT HEALING HAS BEEN PROMPT.
INHALATION: EXPOSURE CAN CAUSE RESPIRATORY TRACT & THROAT
IRRITATION. HEADACHES, SHORTNESS OF BREATH & SY MPTOMS SIMILAR TO
INTOXICATION. OVEREXPOSURE CAN PRODUCE SEVERE CNS DEPRESSION, COMA
& POSSIBLY FATAL RESPIRATORY FAILURE. INGESTION: THE PROBABLE
LETHAL DOSE IN AN ADULT IS 240 ML BUT AS LITTLE AS 20 ML MAY
PRODUCE SYMPTOMS.
