What are the symptoms of chemical poisoning caused by cleaning products?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Chemical specific: Symptoms would generally occur at the time of exposure and would be directly related to the specific chemical - for example ammonia and chlorine are both direct irritants to the respiratory tract. Acids and alkalis are directly irritating to any skin, etc.
