Potential health effects

Eye contact with the product ingredients may cause eye irritation with discomfort, tearing, or blurring of vision. Direct exposure may cause skin irritation (redness, swelling). A single prolonged exposure may result in the material being absorbed through the skin in harmful amounts. In general, overexposure to high atmospheric concentrations of alkyl-substituted aromatics may produce central nervous system depression, headache, dizziness, incoordination, nausea and loss of appetite. Aspiration (liquid enters the lung), may cause lung damage due to chemical pneumonia, a condition caused by petroleum-like solvents. Minute amounts of petroleum hydrocarbons aspirated into the lungs during ingestion or vomiting may cause mild to severe pulmonary injury and possible death. Individuals with preexisting diseases of the kidneys or liver may have increased susceptibility to the toxicity of excessive exposures. Overexposure by inhalation to Isopropanol may include irritation of the upper respiratory passages, with coughing and discomfort. Ingestion can cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and loss of consciousness. Inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact may initially include nonspecific discomfort, such as nausea, headache, and abdominal pain, flushing of the face, hypotension, or weakness. Higher exposures to Isopropanol may lead to temporary nervous system depression with anesthetic effects such as dizziness, headache, confusion, incoordination, and loss of consciousness or fatality from gross overexposure. There are rare inconclusive reports of human sensitization to Isopropanol. Carcinogenicity Information Naphthalene has been classified by the Internal Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B). This IARC classification was based upon limited evidence of carcinogenicity to animals and inadequate evidence of carcinogenicity to humans.
