This product has low oral, dermal and inhalation toxicity. It is minimally irritating to the eyes and slightly irritating to the skin. The oral toxicity of the product compared to the risk of pneumonitis from aspiration of stoddard solvents suggests that vomiting should not be induced. Consideration should be given to reducing ingestion exposure by gastric lavage with an endotracheal tube in place. Activated charcoal and a cathartic are recommended and nervous stimulation should be controlled with a sedative, e.g. barbiturates.
Treatment is otherwise controlled removal of exposure followed by symptomatic and supportive care.
