Best Answer

Ingestion of as little as 1oz of a water solution containing 37% formaldehyde has reportedly caused death in healthy adult humans. Ingestion of any less than that can cause severe convulsions and vertigo, leading to respiratory failure.

If it does not kill you through respiratory failure, if will through SEVERE corrosion of the upper gastrointestinal tract.
