SECTION 4: First aid measures
4.1. Description of first aid measures
First-aid measures general

4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
A more effective intravenous antidote for physician uses is 4-methylpyrazaole, a potent inhibitor of alcohol dehydrogenases, which effectively blocks the
formation of toxic metabolites of ethylene glycol. It has been used to decrease the metabolic consequences of ethylene glycol poisoning before
metabolic acidosis coma, seizures, and renal failure have occured.
SECTION 5: Firefighting measures
5.1. Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media
:
Fine water spray. Alcohol-resistant foam. Foam. Carbon dioxide. Dry chemical powder. Sand.
