As with most household cleaners, Soft Scrub is packed with toxins:
PRESERVATIVES: respiratory effects, general systemic/organ effects; chronic aquatic toxicity, nervous system effects, skin irritation/allergies/damage, developmental/endocrine/reproductive effects.
FRAGRANCE: skin irritation/allergies/damage, acute aquatic toxicity, respiratory effects, biodegradation; Disclosure Concern: non-specific ingredient
SODIUM DODECYLBENZENESULFONATE: chronic and acute aquatic toxicity, developmental/endocrine/reproductive effects, skin irritation/allergies/damage, damage to vision.
CLAURAMINE OXIDE: acute aquatic toxicity, damage to vision.
There are quite a few Soft Scrub products out there. Many of them have concern for cancer, developmental/ endocrine, and reproductive effects.
