11. Toxicological information
Information on likely routes of exposure
Inhalation
Inhalation of dusts may cause respiratory irritation.
Skin contact
Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause irritation.
Eye contact
Dust in the eyes will cause irritation.
Ingestion
Expected to be a low ingestion hazard.
Symptoms related to the
physical, chemical and
toxicological characteristics
Eye and skin contact: Exposure may cause temporary irritation, redness, or discomfort. For
ingestion, consuming less than a few grams would not be harmful. The following effects were
observed after ingesting an excessive quantity: nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, cramps,
restlessness, irritability, dehydration, water retention, nose bleed, gastrointestinal tract damage,
fever, sweating, sunken eyes, high blood pressure, muscle weakness, dry mouth and nose,
shock, cerebral edema (fluid on brain), pulmonary edema (fluid in lungs), blood cell shrinkage,
and brain damage (due to dehydration of brain cells). Death is generally due to cardiovascular
collapse or CNS damage.
Information on toxicological effects
Acute toxicity
In some cases of confirmed hypertension, ingestion may result in elevated blood pressure.
