Conclusions:
The acute inhalation median lethal concentration (LC50) of phenacetin in mouse was found to be 33900 mg/m³ air. Acute toxicity of phenacetin to mouse by the inhalation route indicates that phenacetin does not exhibits acute toxicity by the inhalation route within the dose level mentioned in the study.
Executive summary:

The acute inhalation median lethal concentration (LC50) of phenacetin in mouse was found to be 33900 mg/m³ air. Acute toxicity of phenacetin to mouse by the inhalation route indicates that phenacetin does not exhibits acute toxicity by the inhalation route within the dose level mentioned in the study.
