First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Fresh air. Rinse mouth and nose with water.
Rinse immediately with plenty of water.
Rinse immediately with plenty of water during at least 15-30 minutes.
If the injured is fully conscious: Plenty of water to drink.
Immediate Medical Attention
