Pg2 4036 Part A Section 6 Health Hazard Data Inhalation Health Risks and Symptoms of Exposure: Inhalation of mists and vapors can cause dry throat and cough, dizziness, nausea, headache and fatigue. MDI can induce respirator sensation with asthma- like conditions/symptoms. Skin and Eye Contact Health Risks and Symptoms of Exposure: Repeated skin contact may cause irritation. Eye contact will cause irritation - flush with water for 15 minutes and get medical assistance. Skin Absorption Health Risks and Symptoms of Exposure: Repeated skin contact can cause reddening, swelling and blistering. A single prolonged exposure is not likely to result in the material being absorbed through the skin in harmful amounts. Preliminary data from a research study indicates that MDI in corn oil injected intradermally in guinea pigs can elicit a respiratory sensitization reaction. Ingestion Health Risks: Single doses oral toxicity is believed to be low. MDI acute oral LD50 is above 5,000 mg/kg. In humans, irritation of the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, and stomach can develop following ingestion of this product. Additional Comments: This product contains petroleum oils similar to ones categorized by the international Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as causing skin cancer in mice after prolonged and repeated contact. If mists are generated, may cause irritation of the pulmonary tract, skin or eyes. Any potential hazard can be minimized by using recommended protective equipment to avoid skin contact and by washing thoroughly after each handling. Medical conditions generally aggravated by exposure: Skin and eyes sensitization. Emergency and First Aid Procedures: Eye: Flush with water for 15 minutes. Inhalation: Take person to fresh air.
