Is ethyl acetate bad for your health?

Ethyl acetate is considered safe for most people when used in small amounts, such as in food flavorings or cosmetics. However, inhaling large amounts of ethyl acetate vapor can cause irritation to the eyes, nose, and throat. Prolonged exposure to high levels of ethyl acetate may also affect the nervous system. It is important to use ethyl acetate in a well-ventilated area and follow safety guidelines when handling it.
