Poison Hotline!: Talcum powder poisoning may occur if you breath in or swallow talcum powder. Talc can be very harmful if it is swallowed or if it is breathed in. Move to fresh air immediately & call the national toll-free Poison Help hotline at 1-800-222-1222 or 911. I wish you well with your health!
