First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
If respiratory irritation or distress occurs, remove victim to fresh air. Seek medical attention if irritation persists. If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-3 glasses of water to drink. If conscious, do not induce vomiting. Seek immediate medical attention. Do not leave victim unattended. To prevent aspiration of swallowed product, lay victim on side with head lower than waist.
Symptoms: May cause irritation, along with coughing. Overdose symptoms may include numbness or tingling in hands or feet, uneven heart rate, paralysis, feeling faint, chest pain or heavy feeling, pain spreading to the arm or shoulder, nausea, diarrhea, sweating, general ill feeling, or seizure (convulsions).
In case of contact, wash with plenty of soap and water. Seek medical attention if irritation persists.
Symptoms: May cause skin irritation.
Irrigate eyes with water and repeat until pain free. Seek medical attention if irritation develops, or if vision changes occur.

Showers, Eyewash stations, Ventilation systems, ABC
Wear protective gloves/coveralls
Tightly fitting safety goggles
If exposure limits are exceeded or irritation is experienced, NIOSH approved respiratory protection should be worn. Use P100 respirators for limited exposure, use air-purifying respirator (APR) with high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters for prolonged exposure. Positive-pressure supplied air respirators may be required for high airborne contaminant concentrations. Respiratory protection must be provided in accordance with current safety and health requirements. The need for respiratory protection is not likely for short-term use in well ventilated areas.
