II Health Hazard Data III Hazardous Ingredients
Moderate eye irritant. Mild to moderate skin irritant. Occasional clinical reports
suggest a low potential for skin sensitization upon exaggerated exposure to
sodium hypochlorite if skin damage (e.g. irritation) occurs during exposure.
Routine clinical tests conducted on intact skin with this product found no
sensitization in the test subjects. Exposure to vapor or mist may irritate eyes,
nose, throat, lungs. Harmful if swallowed. May cause nausea and vomiting if
swallowed. The following medical conditions may be aggravated by exposure to
high concentrations of vapor or mist: heart conditions or chronic respiratory
problems such as asthma, emphysema, chronic bronchitis or obstructive lung
disease. Under normal consumer-use conditions, the likelihood of any adverse
health effects is low.
FIRST AID
:
EYE CONTACT
: Hold eye open and rinse slowly and gently with water for
15–20 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes,
then continue rinsing eye. If irritation persists, call a doctor.
SKIN CONTACT
: Take off contaminated clothing. Rinse skin immediately
with plenty of water for 15–20 minutes. If irritation persists, call a doctor.
INGESTION
: Call a poison control center or doctor for further treatment
advice. Have person sip a glassful of water if able to swallow. Do not induce
vomiting unless told to do so by a poison control center or doctor. Do not
give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
INHALATION
