Considering it's usage, and considering that it could be sprayed in a
person's mouth, I'd bet that it's safe, and tested by the FDA for it.
There are too many possible lawsuits involved if it were not. The
company lawyers would insist on it being certified as safe if only
from a possible lawsuit point of view.
There are lots of propellants and vehicles for aerosols that are
considered safe.
