Pulmonaryedemawith hypoxemiahas been describedina number ofpatientsfollowingpoisoning with ethyleneglycol. Respiratorysupport with mechanical ventilation may be required. Theremaybecranialnerve involvement inthe latestagesoftoxicityfromswallowedethyleneglycol. Inparticular,effects have been reported involvingthe seventh, eighth, and ninth cranial nerves, presenting with bilateral facial paralysis, diminished hearing and dysphagia. Ethanolis antidotal and its early administration may blockthe formationofnephrotoxic metabolites ofethylene glycol in the liver. The objective is to rapidly achieve and maintaina blood ethanol level ofapproximately 100 mg/dl by giving a loading dose ofethanol followed by a maintenance dose. Intravenousadministration ofethanol is the preferred route. Ethanol blood levelsshould be checked frequently. Hemodialysismay be required. 4-Methyl pyrazole (Fomepizole®), a potent inhibitor ofalcohol dehydrogenase, has been used therapeutically to decrease the metabolic consequences ofethylene glycol poisoning. Fomepizole® is easier to use clinically than ethanol, does not cause CNSdepressionor hypoglycemia and requires lessmonitoringthan ethanol. Additional therapeutic modalities which may decreasethe adverse consequences ofethylene glycol metabolismare the administration ofboth thiamine and pyridoxine. As thereare complicatedand serious overdoses,we recommendyou consultwiththe toxicologists at your poison control center. Thisantidote is now approved by the F.D.A. and in many caseshas replaced ethanol in the treatment ofethylene glycol poisoning. 5.Firefighting Measures EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:For largefires,usealcoholtypeor all-purpose foams.Forsmallfires,usewaterspray,carbon dioxide or dry chemical. SPECIALFIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Do not spray pool fires directly. Cool fire exposed containers with water. Firefighters shouldwearpositivepressureself-contained breathing apparatusand fullprotectiveclothingfor fires inareas where chemicals are used or stored. UNUSUAL FIRE HAZARDS: A solid stream ofwater or foam directed into hot, burning liquid can cause frothing. HAZARDOUSCOMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Burningmayproduce carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. 6:Accidental Release Measures Wearappropriateprotectiveclothingand equipment(See Section8).Collectwith absorbentmaterial and place in an appropriate, labeled container for disposal. Flush spill area with water. 7.Handling and Storage DANGER:Harmful or Fatal ifSwallowed Do not drink antifreeze or solution. Avoid eye and prolonged or repeated skin contact. Avoid breathing vapors or mists. Wash exposed skin thoroughly with soap and water after use. Do not store in opened or unlabeled containers. Keep container away from open flames and excessive heat. Do not reuse empty containers unless properly cleaned. Empty containers retain product residue and may be dangerous.

HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION:Will not occur. 11.Toxicological Information POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS: ACUTE HAZARDS: INHALATION:Maycause irritation ofthe nose and throat with headache, particularly from mists. High vapor concentrations may produce nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, and irregular eye movements. SKINCONTACT:May cause irritation with local rednessand swelling. Prolonged or repeated contact may cause allergic skin reaction (sensitization). EYE CONTACT: Liquid, vapor, and mist may cause discomfort in the eye with persistent conjunctivitis,seen as slight excess redness or conjunctiva. INGESTION: Following ingestion, a bitter taste may be noted. May cause abdominal discomfort or pain, nausea, vomiting, dizziness,drowsiness,malaise, blurring ofvision, irritability, back pain,decrease in urine output, kidney failure, and central nervous system effects,including irregular eye movements,convulsions and coma.Cardiac failure and pulmonary edema may develop.Severe kidney damage which may be fatal may follow the swallowing ofethylene glycol. A few reports have been published describing the development ofweakness ofthe facial muscles, diminishing hearing, and difficulty with swallowing, during the late stages ofsevere poisoning. CHRONIC HAZARDS: Prolonged or repeated inhalation exposure may produce signs ofcentral nervous system involvement, particularly dizziness and jerking eye movements. Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause skin sensitization and an associated dermatitis in some individuals. Ethylene glycol has been found to cause birth defects in laboratory animals. The significance ofthis finding to humans has not been determined. MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: The available toxicological information and a knowledge of the physical and chemical properties ofthe material suggest that overexposure is unlikely to aggravate existing medical conditions. CARCINOGEN:None of the components ofthese products is listedas a carcinogen or suspected carcinogen by IARC, ACGIH,NTP or OSHA. AcuteToxicity Values: Ethylene Glycol:LD50 Oral Rat: 4700 mg/kg LD50 Skin Rabbit: 9530 mg/kg Diethylene Glycol: LD50 Oral Rat:12,565 mg/kg LD50 Skin Rabbit:11,890 mg/kg SIGNIFICANT LABORATORY DATA WITH POSSIBLE RELEVANCE TO HUMAN HEALTH: Ethylene glycol has been shown to produce dose-related teratogenic effects in rats and mice when given by gavage or in drinking water at high concentrations or doses. Also, in a preliminary study to assess the effects ofexposure ofpregnant rats and mice to aerosols at concentrations 150,1,000 and 2,500 mg/m3 for 6 hours a day throughout the period oforganogenesis,teratogenic effects were produced at the highest concentrations,but only in mice. The conditions ofthese latter experiments did not allow a conclusion as to whether the developmental toxicity was mediated by inhalation ofaerosol,percutaneous absorption ofethylene glycol fromcontaminatedskin, or swallowing ofethyleneglycolas a result ofgroomingthe wetted coat. In a further study, comparing effects from high aerosol concentration by whole-body or nose-only exposure, it was shown that nose-only exposure resulted in maternal toxicity (1,000 and 2,500 mg/m3)and developmental toxicity in with minimal evidence of teratogenicity (2,500 mg/m3).The no-effectsconcentration(basedon maternaltoxicity) was 500 mg/m3.Ina furtherstudyin Page 4 of 6 Prestone tGr usePRE&3CQBHE ®§jy£E&i£g£H ANTIFREEZE/COOLANT ProductsCorporation DatePrepared:09/13/2011 mice,noteratogenic effectscouldbe produced whenethylene glycolwasappliedto theskinof pregnantmiceovertheperiod of organogenesis.Theaboveobservationssuggestthatethyleneglycolisto be regardedas an animalteratogen;there is currentlyno availableinformationto suggestthat ethyleneglycolcausedbirthdefects in humans. Cutaneous application of ethyleneglycol is ineffectivein producing developmental toxicity;exposureto high aerosol concentration is onlyminimally effectiveinproducingdevelopmentaltoxicity;the majorroute forproducingdevelopmentaltoxicity is perorally. Twochronic feeding studies, using rats and mice, have not producedany evidence that ethylene glycol causes dose-related increases intumor incidence or a different pattern oftumors compared with untreated controls. The absence ofcarcinogenic potential for ethylene glycol has been supported by numerous invitro genotoxicity studies showing that it does not produce mutagenic or clastogenic effects. 12.Ecological Information Ethylene Glycol: LC50 Goldfish: 5,000 mg/L/24 hr. at 20 C static conditions.
