Inks contain an organic solvent, which is not harmful to the human body, though.
When an ink comes into the hands or any other part of your body, wash it away thoroughly. Be careful not
to lick an ink or allow it to come into contact with your eyes.
In the event of eye contact, immediately wash with water thoroughly and obtain medical attention.
Also, if you have swallowed an ink in a large quantity by mistake, obtain medical attention immediately.
Inks contain a pigment and would not come off once they adhere to clothing.
