isopropyl alcohol is an organic compound. If exposed to 70 isopropyl alcohol for a long time, it may cause harm to the human body through three ways, including skin contact, respiratory inhalation, and ingestion. You need to seek medical treatment in time.
3 hazards of long-term exposure to 70 isopropyl alcohol
- Skin contact: When the human body is exposed to 70 isopropyl alcohol(cas67-63-0), it can be absorbed through the skin. Although the absorption through the skin is less, long-term contact may also cause dry skin and chapped skin. After skin contact with 70% isopropyl alcohol, clean the contact area with water and soap in time;
- Respiratory inhalation: 70% isopropyl alcohol(cas67-63-0) is a evaporable solution. When a large amount of isopropanol vapor is accidentally inhaled, it will irritate the human respiratory tract and eyes, causing symptoms such as cough, chest tightness, and red and swollen eyes. It is necessary to stay away from such an environment immediately, try to breathe fresh air, and keep the respiratory tract unobstructed. If severe breathing difficulties occur, seek medical attention immediately;
- Mistake: 70% isopropyl alcohol(cas67-63-0) cannot be taken orally. If accidentally swallowed, symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea will occur, and even death may occur in severe cases. Patients need to seek medical treatment in time, cooperate with doctors in gastric lavage, actively inhale oxygen to ensure the normal operation of the body, and cooperate with doctors in targeted treatment.
It is recommended to avoid contact with 70 isopropanol(cas67-63-0) and other harmful chemicals in daily life. If you accidentally touch it and the above discomfort symptoms occur, you need to seek medical treatment in time.
