Precautionary Statements
Potential Health Effects
ROUTES OF ENTRY: Ingestion, inhalation, and absorption through the eye or skin are all possible
routes of entry for this active ingredient. Exposure by any of the routes may cause acute
cholinesterase depression. Severe cholinesterase depression may be fatal.
SIGNS OF ACUTE OVEREXPOSURE: Acute Cholinesterase depression may be evidenced by
headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, excessive seating salivation and tearing,
constricted pupils, blurred vision, tightness in chest weakness, muscle twitching and confusion; in
extreme cases, unconsciousness, convulsions, severe respiratory depression and death may occur.
SIGNS OF CHRONIC OVEREXPOSURE: Repeated exposures to small doses of DDVP and other
organophosphates may lower the cholinesterase to levels where the above symptoms of acute
overexposure are observed.
CARCINOGENICITY: EPA under its 199 proposed Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment has
classified DDVP as having “suggestive evidence of carcinogenicity, but not sufficient to assess
human carcinogenic potential”. IARC lists DDVP (Dichlorvos) as being possibly carcinogenic to
humans (Group 2B). CARE SHOULD BE EXERCISED IN HANDLING DDVP AND ITS
FORMULATIONS.
