Systemic toxicity refers to toxic effect(s) caused as a result of absorption and distribution of a substance that affects the whole body rather than a specific (local) area. Systemic toxicity may be induced by oral and dermal route, inhalation, intravenous or intramuscular injection of a toxic chemical into the human or animal body. Most of the systemically toxic chemicals do not cause damage to all organs but usually cause major toxicity to one or two organs. These are referred to as the target organs of toxicity for that chemical.[1]
Types of systemic toxicity include [2]:
- Acute Toxicity
- Subchronic Toxicity
- Chronic Toxicity
- Carcinogenicity
- Developmental Toxicity
- Genetic Toxicity (Genotoxicity)
