Drug Information

Inhalation of dust irritates nose and throat. Contact with eyes or skin causes irritation. If continued for a long period, ingestion or inhalation of silver compounds can cause permanent discoloration of skin (argyria). (USCG, 1999)

INHALATION: move to fresh air. INGESTION: give large amount of water; induce vomiting. EYES: flush with water for at least 15 min. SKIN: flush with water. (USCG, 1999)

Silver acetate Use and Manufacturing

Uses

Oxidizing agent for use in liquid ammonia: Kline, Kershner, Inorg. Chem. 5, 932 (1966). In the health field, silver acetate-containing products have been used in gum, spray, and lozenges to deter smokers from smoking. The silver in these products, when mixed with smoke, creates an unpleasant metallic taste in the smoker's mouth, thus deterring them from smoking. Lozenges containing 2.5 mg of silver acetate showed "modest efficacy" on 500 adult smokers tested over a three-month period. However,
