EMERGENCY OVERVIEW:
Ingredients in the package may be harmful if swallowed or absorbed through the skin. Direct contact with
skin or eyes may cause skin irritation or burns and irreversible eye damage. Inhalation of vapor in high concentrations may cause irritation or burns of the respiratory system.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS (Acute and Chronic):
Skin contact and inhalation are expected to be the primary routes of exposure to the ingredients in the
product.
L(+)-Lactic acid (in the gelatin part) is an irritant to eyes and skin and direct contact may cause blurred
vison or burns. Inhalation in high concentration may cause irritation, burns, breathing difficulties, headache
or dizziness. Ingestion may produce burns, vomiting or gastrointestinal disturbance.
Ammonium bicarbonate (in the solid part) is a slight irritant to eyes and skin. Ingestion of large doses
may produce nausea and vomiting and cause systemic ammonia poisoning. Inhalation may cause
respiratory irritation. No chronic effects are known.
On the basis of available information, exposure to the inert ingredients in the product is not expected to
cause significant adverse human health effects when recommended safety precautions are followed.
CARCINOGENICITY:
The ingredients in this product are not listed as carcinogens by OSHA and are
are not listed as suspected carcinogens by the National Toxicology Program (NTP) or the International
Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC).
