Principal route of exposure is usually by ingestion. The material may accumulate in the human body and progressively causetissue damage. A small fraction of an ingested dose may be metabolically activated in the liver and in the kidney to a form that reacts covalently with tissue nucleophiles. Toxic doses of the drug presumably deplete liver stores of reduced glutathione and the metabolite is then free to react with essential tissue macromolecules resulting in cell death and necrosis.
