Potential health effects

Eyes: May cause slight eye irritation. Corneal injury is unlikely. Skin: Brief contact may cause slight skin irritation with local redness. May cause drying and flaking of the skin. Effects may be slow to heal. Prolonged skin contact is unlikely to result in absorption of harmful amounts. Inhalation: No adverse effects are anticipated from single exposure to mist. Excessive exposure may cause irritation to upper respiratory tract (nose and throat). Symptoms of excessive exposure may be anesthetic or narcotic effects; dizziness and drowsiness may be observed. Ingestion: Low toxicity if swallowed. Small amounts swallowed incidentally as a result of normal handling operations are not likely to cause injury; however, swallowing larger amounts may cause injury. Swallowing may result in gastrointestinal irritation. May be fatal if swallowed and enters airways. Chronic Exposure: For the active ingredient(s): 2,4-D 2-ethylhexyl ester. Has been toxic to the fetus in laboratory animal tests. There is no evidence that these findings are relevant to humans. For similar active ingredient(s). 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. In laboratory animals, excessive doses toxic to the parent animals caused decreased weight and survival of offspring. For the active ingredient(s): Fluroxypyr 1-methylheptyl ester. For the minor component(s): Has been toxic to the fetus in laboratory animals at doses toxic to the mother. For the minor component(s): In animals, effects have been reported on the following organs: Gastrointestinal tract. Respiratory tract. Kidney. Contains naphthalene which has caused cancer in some laboratory animals. In humans, there is limited evidence of cancer in workers involved in naphthalene production. Limited oral studies in rats were negative.
