may have cumulative effects. This product is a cumulative poison. Minor exposures over a period of time may lead to serious health problems.

Potential health effects

In most cases of ingestion of anticoagulants, victims have remained asymptomatic, due to the small dosage taken. Even in cases involving ingestion of substantial amounts of anticoagulant compound (more often medication than rodenticide), hypoprothrombinaemia has occurred without symptoms of poisoning. Haemorrhage appears only when extraordinary amounts have been absorbed. In reported cases, the anticoagulants were either taken deliberately, were absorbed over long periods out of neglect of elementary hygienic standards, or were ingested by starving indigents who used quantities of rodent bait as food. Victims of large doses exhibit haematuria, nosebleed, haematomata, bleeding gums, and melena, abdominal pain and back pain probably reflecting haemorrhage in the abdominal and retroperitoneal tissues. Weakness occurs as a result of anaemia. Renal colic often complicates severe haematuria. Nasal and gastrointestinal haemorrhages have occasionally caused death from exsanguination If poisoning is suspected, do not wait for symptoms to develop. Contact a physician, the nearest hospital, or the nearest Poison Control Center. Inhalation Short term exposure: Significant inhalation exposure is considered to be unlikely.
