First-aid measures
Note: Personal protection for the First Aider.
· After inhalation:
Supply fresh air or oxygen; call doctor. In case of unconsciousness place patient into the recovery position for transport.
· After skin contact:
IF ON SKIN (or hair): Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water [or shower]. Seek medical treatment.
· After eye contact:
Hold eyes open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove contact lenses,
if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eyes. Call a Poison Control Center or doctor for treatment advice.
