PAIN AND BLURRED VISION. SKIN ABSORPTION: CAUSES IRRITATION,
CRACKING OR FLAKING DUE TO DEHYDRATION AND DEFATTING ACTION.
INGESTION: CAN CAUSE GASTRITIS, INTOXICA TION, BLINDNESS AND IN
ACUTE CASES, DEATH.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH PRE-EXISTING SKIN
DISEASE OR EYE PROBLEMS OR IMPAIRED LIVER OR KIDNEY FUNCTION MAY
INCREASE RISK FROM EXPOSURES.
