If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention if symptoms appear.

In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention if irritation develops.

In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention if irritation develops.

Do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If large quantities of this material are swallowed, call a physician immediately.

Use foam or all purpose dry chemicals to extinguish.

Keep unnecessary personnel away. Follow all fire fighting procedures (Section 5).

Small volumes of liquid anesthetic agents may evaporate readily at normal room temperatures, and may dissipate before any clean up attempts are initiated.

For large spills, one or more bottles break, ensure adequate ventilation or evacuate area. Large volumes of anesthetic agents may cause sedative effects. Restrict persons not wearing protective equipment from areas of spills or leaks until clean up is complete. Large spills should be absorbed using a sorbent that is designed for clean up of organic chemicals.

Wash thoroughly after handling.

Keep container tightly closed. Keep in a cool, well-ventilated place. Store between 15-30°C (59 to 86°F).

Wash thoroughly after handling.

Use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to keep airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. Well designed and maintained scavenging system on the anesthesia equipment (combined with a good general room ventilation) is important in limiting the exposures of all personnel.

Use chemical resistant, impervious gloves.

Safety glasses. Goggles, face shield, or other full-face protection if potential exists for direct exposure to aerosols or splashes.

Perform exposure monitoring for this product and its components to ensure that employees are not exposed to levels greater than applicable regulatory limits. If exposure levels exceed regulatory limits, implement a respiratory protection program including respiratory protection that is in compliance with OSHA 29 CFR1910.134 (in the US) or equivalent regulation in other regions. Fire fighting requires the use of a self-contained breathing apparatus with full face piece and positive pressure mode.

Work uniform or laboratory coat. Additional body garments should be used based upon the task being performed (e.g., sleevelets, apron, gauntlets, disposable suits).

Stable under recommended storage conditions.
