NOTES |
---|
The symptoms of lung oedema often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation are therefore essential. Health effects of exposure to the substance have not been investigated adequately. Several manufacturers label this substance for other effects - including the possibility of allergic skin reactions, cancer, reproductive effects, specific target organ toxicity (following repeated exposure) or long-term aquatic hazard - but sufficient data to support these GHS classifications were not found. |
