Potential health effects
Liquid Contact with liquid or refrigerated gas can cause cold burns and frostbite. Vapor: Gas/vapor is heavier than air and can cause suffocation by reducing oxygen available for breathing. If inhaled: Central nervous system effects: headache, nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, loss of consciousness. Stress induced heart effects: Inhalation may cause an increase in the sensitivity of the heart to adrenaline, which could result in irregular or rapid heartbeats and reduced heart function. Medical conditions aggravated by overexposure: Heart disease or compromised heart function.
