Skin: Flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and
shoes. Get medical aid immediately. Wash clothing before reuse.
4.3 Ingestion: Liquid ingestion can cause inebriation, headache, gastrointestinal pain, nausea, and vomiting
leading to central nervous system depression. Aspiration of liquid into the lungs must be avoided as even small
quantities in the lungs can produce chemical pneumonia, pulmonary edema and even death.
Ingestion: Do NOT induce vomiting. Get medical aid immediately.
4.4 Inhalation: Prolonged breathing of high vapor concentrations can produce headache, dizziness, nausea, and
impaired vision. Excessive overexposure can cause central nervous system depression, loss of consciousness,
liver damage and death resulting from respiratory failure.
Inhalation: Remove from exposure to fresh air immediately. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing
is difficult and IF TRAINED, give oxygen. Get medical aid. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation without
protection.
4.5 After first aid, get appropriate paramedic, or community medical support. The severity of outcome
following an exposure may be more related to the time between the exposure and treatment, rather than the
amount of the exposure. Therefore, there is a need for rapid treatment of any exposure.
4.6 Note to Physicians: If you determine that a medical emergency exists and the specific chemical identity is
necessary for emergency or first-aid treatment we will immediately disclose the specific chemical identity. Call
INFOTRAC 800-535-5053 or [phone]. We will require a written statement of need and confidentiality
agreement, in accordance with OSHA’s Trade Secret Regulations as soon as circumstances permit. In non-
emergency situations, we will upon written request disclose the specific chemical percentages.
