Is Pepper Spray Poisonous
"Ask if pepper spray is poisonous"

Or ask: "Pepper spray, is it poisonous?" In this regard, it should be carefully observed.

Pepper spray is often used as a self-defense device, but its nature is related to everyone's cognition. Pepper spray is mostly composed of capsaicin. This capsaicin touches the mucous membranes of the human body, such as the eyes, nose, mouth, etc., and can cause instantaneous irritation. When people encounter it, they often feel tingling in the eyes, tearing, nasal discomfort, blocked breathing, and burning in the mouth.

If this irritation is caused, can it be called "poison"? Poisons can damage people's internal organs, cause long-term harm to the body, and endanger life. Although pepper spray causes strong discomfort, its effect is mostly short-lived. In most cases, after rinsing with water and treating it in time, the discomfort of the human body will gradually disappear, and rarely leave long-term harm.

Therefore, although pepper spray is not a "poison" in the traditional sense, it can also cause significant discomfort when acting on the human body. Use it with caution, and it should not be used lightly unless it is in a critical situation.
