irritation. Inhalation may cause respiratory tract irritation and
narcosis. Central nervous system depressant. Loss of consciousness
and even death can occur at high levels of exposure. Chronic:
prolonged or repeated contact with liquid on the skin can cause
irritation and dermatitis.

iarc. (2b)
effects of overexposure: headache, dizziness, drowsiness, nausea,
tingling or numbness of the extremities, senses of fullness in the
head, sense of warmth, stupor or dullness, lethargy and drunkeness.
very high concentrations may lead to unconsciousness or even death
in confined or poorly ventilated areas.
medical cond aggravated by exposure: methylene chloride is metabolized
by the body to carbon monoxide. This can be sufficient to produce a
substantial stress on the cardiovascular system by elevated levels
of carbonyhemoglobin.
