Principle Routes of Exposure
Skin, eyes, mouth, lungs. Adverse health effects from exposure to product or ingredients of product: Pyrethroids may produce non-specific symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Large doses may cause disturbance of the nervous system with tremors, ataxia, weakness of limbs, convulsions, coma, and death from respiratory depression. Dermal contact with pyrethroids in the facial area may cause a subjective sensation of tingling or numbness (paresthesia). There is no evidence of any long-term or cumulative effects on the skin. Aromatic hydrocarbons cause bone marrow depression and increase the fragility of red blood cells. Sensitization of the heart muscle can occur, but it is very rare. Sensitization is the process whereby a biological change occurs in the individual because of previous exposure to a substance and, as a result, the individual reacts more strongly when subsequently exposed to the substance. Once sensitized, an individual can react to extremely low airborne levels, even below the TLV, or to skin contact. Peripheral neuropathy is a progressive disorder of the nervous system characterized by sensory and motor abnormalities, muscle spasms, weaknesses and pain in the arm and legs, numbness and tingling of the fingers and toes and paralysis.
