Disclaimer - I sell silica gel desiccant
The pure form of silica gel indeed is not neurotoxic but the cheap formulations used in disposable desiccant packs are contaminated in the chemical manufacture with acrylamide monomer which indeed has been shown to be neurotoxic and carcinogenic. When packets are completely sealed there is no danger of dust. The only safe silica gel desiccants are those produced by a more expensive process and are sold in little plastic canisters with dust seals that are intended for use to keep pharmacy drugs dry in the bottles. You can ask your druggist to save these little canisters for you when they throw away the bulk bottles which contained drugs.
