Chemical irritants can cause severe injury, permanent disabilities, and in rare cases, death. Children, the elderly and those with chronic diseases are more vulnerable to the effects of chemical irritants. People with preexisting respiratory conditions such as asthma are likely to need medical attention and may sometimes require hospitalization or even ventilation support. Skin exposure to CS may cause chemical burns or induce allergic contact dermatitis. When people are hit at close range or are severely exposed, eye injuries involving scarring of the cornea can lead to a permanent loss in visual acuity.

In case of accidental discharge or exposure to chemical irritants seek medical assistance immediately.
