4. FIRST AID MEASURES
INGESTION: Immediate medical attention is required. Do NOT induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person. To avoid aspiration should vomiting occur, have the person lean forward. If victim is conscious, give
2-4 glasses of water. Never induce vomiting unless specifically directed by qualified medical personnel.
SKIN: Wash off with soap and water. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use. Get medical attention if
irritation or symptoms develop. Flush skin with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes until no evidence of
chemical remains.
INHALATION: Get medical attention if irritation or symptoms develop. If not breathing, remove to fresh air and begin
artificial respiration using a barrier device. Because of chemical properties, do not use mouth-to-mouth contact.
EYES: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and get medical attention if
irritation persists.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Treatment is symptomatic and supportive.
