First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Ensure supply of fresh air. In the event of symptoms seek medical treatment. If unconscious, place in recovery position and seek medical advice.
When in contact with the skin, clean with soap and water. Consult a doctor if skin irritation persists.
Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.
Rinse out mouth and give plenty of water to drink. Do not induce vomiting. Get medical advice.
Immediate Medical Attention
In the event of symptoms seek medical treatment. If unconscious, place in recovery position and seek medical advice. Consult a doctor if skin irritation persists. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention. Get medical advice.
