chronic or repeated exposure. (STOT RE).
Chronic Toxicity
Chronic exposure to corrosive fumes/gases may cause erosion of the teeth followed by jaw
necrosis. Bronchial irritation with chronic cough and frequent attacks of pneumonia are
common. Gastrointestinal disturbances may also be seen. Effects from this product caused
by acute exposure may cause permanent damage to target organs and/or may cause
chronic conditions. Prolonged exposure may cause chronic effects. Repeated contact may
cause allergic reactions in very susceptible persons. Contains a known or suspected
mutagen. Possible risk of irreversible effects. Contains a known or suspected carcinogen.
Contains a known or suspected reproductive toxin. Avoid repeated exposure. May cause
adverse effects on the bone marrow and blood-forming system.
