First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Terminate the exposure immediately; move the affected person to fresh air. Protect the person against growing cold. Provide medical treatment if irritation, dyspnoea or other symptoms persist.
Symptoms: Not expected. However, irritation, dyspnoea or other symptoms may persist.
Remove contaminated clothes. Wash the affected area with plenty of water, lukewarm if possible. Soap, soap solution or shampoo should be used if there is no skin injury. Provide medical treatment if skin irritation persists.
Symptoms: Not expected. However, skin irritation may persist.
Rinse eyes immediately with a flow of running water, open the eyelids (also using force if needed); remove contact lenses immediately if worn by the affected person. Rinsing should continue at least for 10 minutes. Provide medical treatment, specialized if possible.
Symptoms: Causes serious eye irritation.
Rinse out the mouth with water and provide 2-5 dL of water. Provide medical treatment if the person has any health problems.
Symptoms: Irritation, nausea.
