Potential health effects

INGESTION: DANGER harmful if swallowed. May cause all of the following symptoms nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or ulceration. Ingestion of large amounts may cause anemia and/or cardiovascular distress. INHALATION: Respiratory and/or gastro-­‐intestinal irritant, inhalation may cause irritation of the mucous membranes and respiratory system characterized by coughing, burning, and sneezing.

Extreme overexposure may result in eye damage due to burns. SKIN: Irritant, direct contact may cause severe irritation characterized by itching, redness and/or edema. Extreme overexposure may result in tissue damage due to burns. Other Chemical Interactions Which Enhance Toxicity: No known or reported interactions. Existing Medical Conditions Aggravated By Exposure: Eye irritation may result from prolonged exposure to low levels of dust. Prolonged dust inhalation may result in varying degrees of lung damage and/or mucous membrane irritation. Prolonged exposure of the skin may result in localized dermatitis, inflammation, and/or irritation. Prolonged exposure may aggravate allergies, pulmonary disorders and blood cell diseases.

Other Health Effects

Premature or accidental product activation, mishandling and/or improper storage of the package or the contact of package components with acids and/or reducing agents may result in the release of Chlorine Dioxide gas. Direct contact with or inhalation of Chlorine Dioxide gas may result in skin and/or eye irritation and/or inflammation of the respiratory system and/or mucous membranes. Extended inhalation of Chlorine Dioxide gas in high concentrations may lead to coughing, bronchitis, pulmonary edema and oxidative burns. 4). FIRST AID INGESTION: DO NOT induce vomiting; if conscious have subject drink multiple glasses of water, Seek medical attention. Loosen any tight clothing.
