(4).InChIKey: WTDRDQBEARUVNC-LURJTMIESA-N

4. Safety information of Levodopa

Poison by ingestion. Moderately toxic by intravenous and intraperitoneal routes. Human systemic effects by ingestion: somnolence, hallucinations and distorted perceptions, toxic psychosis, motor activity changes, ataxia, dyspnea. Experimental teratogenic and reproductive effects. Questionable human carcinogen producing skin tumors. Human mutation data reported. An anticholinergic agent used as an anti-Parkinsonian drug. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx.
