Remarks:
In humans, oxalic acid has an oral (lowest published lethal dose) of 600 mg/kg (human).
The main toxicity of oxalic acid is due to the precipitation of calcium oxalate in the kidneys when urine becomes supersaturated with respect to this salt. Oxalic acid is also a metabolism product of the degradation of ethylene glycol if accidentally ingested and, as such, directly represents a danger for the kidneys in case of glycol poisoning.
First Aid
