First-aid measures
Description of first aid measures
General advice
Take off contaminated clothing and shoes immediately.
Inhalation
Remove to fresh air. Oxygen, if needed.
Skin contact
Wash off immediately with soap and plenty of water.
Eye contact
Rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist.
Ingestion
Call a physician immediately. Induce vomiting if person is conscious. Hold person's head low, to prevent aspiration (inhalation into the windpipe) Rinse mouth. If conscious, give the victim plenty of water
to drink.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Eyes
Inflammation
Lungs
Cough
Skin irritation
Notes to physician / Possible hazards
Systemic poisoning, heart and circulatory reaction, breathing problems
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Due to toxicity, elimination is the main priority.
If the person remains conscious, induced vomiting may be advisable, otherwise pump out stomach
(gastric lavage) while taking preventive measures against inhalation (if necessary, intubation beforehand).
If ingested, irrigate the stomach.
Take preventive measures against aspiration (intubation if necessary).
Irritation of the skin and mucus membranes can be treated with corticosteroids.
Treat symptomatically.
