Emergency First Aid Measures
Critical first aid procedures for chemical exposure incidents and medical emergencies
Inhalation Exposure
Remove victim from area of exposure - avoid becoming a casualty. Remove contaminated clothing and loosen remaining clothing. Allow patient to assume most comfortable position and keep warm. Keep at rest until fully recovered. Seek medical advice if effects persist.
Skin Contact
If skin contact occurs, remove contaminated clothing and wash skin with running water. If irritation occurs seek medical advice.

Immediate Medical Attention Required
Get to a doctor or hospital quickly.
Medical Treatment
Treat symptomatically. Treat as for exposure to nitrates. Maintain blood pressure by fluid administration. Treat symptomatically (for shrapnel from detonation).
