Metribuzin is harmful orally, with reported oral LD50 values of 1090 to 2300 mg/kg in rats, 700 mg/kg in mice and 245 to 274 mg/kg in guinea pigs. It is practically nontoxic dermally, with a dermal LD50 of 20,000 mg/kg in rabbits. The 4-hour inhalation LC50 for Metribuzin in rats is greater than 0.65 mg/L, indicating moderate toxicity via the inhalation route.
