Section 4: First Aid Measures
Eye Contact: Immediately flush with plenty of water for 15 minutes. Call a physician if irritation persists.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and wash affected area with soap and water. Call a physician if
irritation persists. Wash contaminated clothing prior to re-use.
Inhalation: Remove person to fresh air. Keep person calm. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If
breathing is difficult give oxygen. Call a physician.
Ingestion: Do NOT induce vomiting. Call a physician immediately.

decision of whether to induce vomiting or not should be made by a physician. If lavage is
performed, suggest endotracheal and/or esophageal control. If burn is present, treat as any
thermal burn, after decontamination. Exposure may increase myocardial irritability. Do not
administer sympathomimetic drugs unless absolutely necessary. No specific antidote.
