Inhalation Exposure
Remove to fresh air. If breathing has stopped or is labored, give assisted respirations. Supplemental oxygen may be indicated. If the heart has stopped, trained personnel should begin cardiopulmonary resuscitation immediately. In case of shortness of breath, give oxygen.
Symptoms:
Dizziness. Salivation. Nausea. Vomiting. Loss of mobility/consciousness.
Eye Contact
In case of direct contact with eyes, seek medical advice.
Immediate Medical Attention Required
If exposed or concerned: Get medical attention/advice.
Medical Treatment
Get medical attention/advice.
