Section 11. Toxicological Information
Routes of EntryAbsorbed through skin. Inhalation. Ingestion.
Toxicity to AnimalsAcute oral toxicity (LD50): 292 mg/kg [Mouse].
Chronic Effects on HumansCauses damage to the following organs: the nervous system.
May cause damage to the following organs: cardiovascular system, central nervous system (CNS).
Other Toxic Effects onHazardous in case of ingestion.
HumansSlightly hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant), of inhalation.
Special Remarks onNot available.
Toxicity to Animals
Special Remarks on
May cause adverse reproductive effects and birth defects (teratogenic) based on animal test data
Chronic Effects on Humans
Special Remarks on otherAute Potential Health Effects:
Toxic Effects on HumansSkin: May cause skin irritation and numbness (anesthetic effect). When applied to the skin, it produces an
anesthetic effect by blocking the signals at the nerve endings of the skin. when compounded with an ointment
and applied topically, It may be absorbed by the skin cause systemic effects similar to that of ingestion.
Eyes: May cause eye irritation and numbness.
Inhalation: Dust may cause respiratory tract irritation and numbness.
Ingestion: Harmful of swallowed. May cause abdominal discomfort, nausea, vomiting. May affect
behavior/central nervous system (convulsions/seizures, drowsiness, lightheadedness, dizziness, confusion,
disorientation, muscle twitching or trembling, somnolence, unusual excitement, unusual tiredness or
weakness, nervousness, restlessness), cardiovascular system (hypotension, change in heart rate with
possibe cardiac arrest). May also cause shortness of breath or trouble breathing, ringing or buzzing in the
ears, feeling hot, cold or numb, increased sweating, blurred or double vision.
Chronic Potential Health Effects:
Skin: May cause allergic skin reaction with rash, hives, swelling, or abnormal sensation at the site of
application.
Ingestion/Inhalation: It is rare, but it may cause allergic reaction with cough, difficulty swallowing or tongue
swelling, dizziness or fainting, hives or swelling of the eyelids, face or lips; itching or skin rash, stuffy nose,
chest tightness, shortness of breath, trouble breathing or wheezing.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: Hypersensitivity to material; respiratory depression; existing
cardiac conditions; broken or inflammed skin, burns, or open wounds at the place of application. More can be
absorbed into the body quickly, which increases the chance of side effects; Liver disease (severe). The risk
of side effects may be increased because of the slower removal of lidocaine from the body.
