VANITY: Is Super Glue Poisonous?

Posted on 05/14/2019 5:04:28 AM PDT by mowowie

The plastic lip on the spout of my coffee pot broke when it hit he floor now i can't pour a cup without it going everywhere. I keep seeing super glue being used to close flesh wounds but nothing about it being ingested.

Can i just glue the plastic piece back on and be all set or would that be a bad idea?

Walmart right up the street.
I’ll have to bring the old one with me to make sure the height triggers that valve below the filter thingy.

Do you ever microwave food or drink in plastic containers? If so, don’t worry about a touch of super glue.

Super glue is used as a suture substitute and is biocompatible with the human body.

Wow. I still can't believe that. But yours and several other commenters here have me slowly coming around.

Do you know if same goes for Crazy Glue?

It is poisonous only in California. With that said, go buy a new pot.

What a horrible way to go! Imagine the agony. Hopefully the parents weren’t too far gone not to get help for the dog. At least to put it down humanely.

The LD50 for Super Glue is about two tubes worth.

Only kidding. I just made that up (I heard 73.7% of all statistics seen on the Internet are fabricated!)

Seriously, I don't think it is a problem at all in those kinds of doses.

Try this link: Superglue: Everything you need to know, and some things you don’t

Also, there is often a phone number you can call on the packaging. I have done this on occasion, and the ensuing conversations can be interesting.

A friend of mine is lead guitar player in a band. Occasionally, he has to glue his callouss back on his fingers and he uses super glue to do it between sets. He says that he keeps a tube of it in his guitar case.

I’ve been using cyanoacrylate glue on my artificial nails for years and never a problem. I wouldn’t drink it, though.

superglues are often used in surgery to glue cuts together in place of sutures.

Correct ... it was supposedly developed by the British during WWI to close wounds on the battlefield so that they could get the injured soldier to a hospital without him bleeding to death.

Breaking off the spout on a Mr. Coffee might improve the normal drip spill pattern.
