Primary irritant effect:
on the skin:                   Irritant to skin and mucous membranes.
on the eye:                   Irritating effect.
Sensitization:               No sensitizing effects known.
Other information (about experimental toxicology):

Reproductive effects have been observed on tests with laboratory animals.
Subacute to chronic toxicity:
2-Propanol (isopropyl alcohol) may act as a local irritant and in high
concentrations as a narcotic with symptoms such as headache, nausea,
dizziness, vomiting, mental depression, anesthesia, and coma.Similar
symptoms may be caused by ingestion.It can cause corneal burns on
contact with the eyes and has caused teratogenic, mutagenic and
reproductive effects in laboratory animals.
Symptoms of methanol overexposure may include intoxication, headache,
drowsiness, nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, blindness, coma and death.
It is a defatting agent and can cause skin and eye irritation.Absorption
through the skin is possible.Chronic exposure may cause liver and eye
injury.
Ethyl alcohol is rapidly oxidized in the body and is less toxic than
methyl alcohol.Exposure to high vapor concentrations may cause upper
respiratory tract irritation and eye irritation.It is a central nervous
system depressant and ingestion leads to drowsiness, lassitude, loss of
appetite and inability to concentrate.Mutagenic and teratogenic data
have been reported.
Additional toxicological information:
To the best of our knowledge the acute and chronic toxicity of this
substance is not fully known.
IARC-3: Not classifiable as to carcinogenicity to humans.
ACGIH A4: Not classifiable as a human carcinogen: Inadequate data on
which to classify the agent in terms of its carcinogenicity in humans
and/or animals.
