In the case of health problems or if you are not sure you are having them,
inform your physician and let him/her see this MSDS information. If the
exposed person faints put him/her on his/her side with head slightly
General advice
positioned backward, and take care that his/her respiratory organs are not
blocked, do not provoke vomiting. If the exposed person vomits
spontaneously try to prevent the content from entering the respiratory
system.
Remove the exposed person to fresh air. Warm the exposed person. If
Inhalation
irritation is persistent seek for medical help.
Immediately remove contaminated clothes. Wash the exposed area with
soap and lukewarm water. Seek for medical help.
Skin contact
Eye contact
Ingestion
Remove contact lenses. Rinse eyes with water jet, lukewarm if possible,
and keep rinsing for 10-15 minutes holding the eyelids open. Seek for
medical hlep.
Remove the exposed person to the calm place. Rinse his/her mouth with
water (only if the person is conscious), never invoke vomiting. Seek for
medical help.
