"Use only as directed. Do not use more of it, or more often, or for a longer time. Doing so may increase absorption through the skin and the chance of salicylic acid poisoning."

"Salicylic acid poisoning/salicylate toxicity from topical preparations is rare. Check with your doctor if you experience any of of the following symptoms: confusion, diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, lightheadedness, headache, rapid breathing, continuing ringing or buzzing in ears (tinnitus), loss of hearing, severe drowsiness, lethargy hyperpnea, stomach pain, and psychic disturbances."

PS How exactly do you measure "confusion" as a medical symptom? Usually when I'm unexpectedly ill, I get confused. Don't most people? Are there sick people who are like, "Yup.

What the hell is a psychic disturbance? You mean, if I start manifesting telepathic or telekinetic abilities? If so, well worth the poisoning...
