CAUTION: Potential symptoms of overexposure by inhalation or ingestion are dizziness, headache, vomiting, visual disturbances, staggering gait, hilarity, fatigue, anorexia, lassitude, CNS depression, loss of consciousness, respiratory arrest. Chronic exposure has been associated with bone marrow depression and leukemia. Direct contact may cause irritation of eyes, nose, respiratory system and skin; dermititis may develop due to defatting action. Aspiration into the lung may lead to chemical pneumonitis.
