Chloroform makes some serious damage to the nerves and can cause liver problem because it is metabolised by the liver, so consequently its metabolites are often toxic.
Doses of chloroform as small as 10ml can cause fatal cardiac arrhythmia (death by heart attack), or respiratory failure. It can also cause liver damage as it metabolizes into phosgene, a toxic gas that was used as a chemical weapon in WWI. Some cough medicines contain small amounts of chloroform, although these appear to have no immediate side effects, they are banned in some countries (notably the US). Chloroform is mainly used as an industrial solvent and as a precursor to refrigerants. Chloroform exposure has been shown to increase the risk of birth defects in lab rats.
