Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Move to fresh air. Get medical attention immediately if symptoms occur.
Wash off immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention immediately if symptoms occur.
Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical attention.
Clean mouth with water and drink afterwards plenty of water. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.
Symptoms: Gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea
Immediate Medical Attention
Obtain medical attention for eye contact. Get medical attention immediately if symptoms occur for skin contact and inhalation. Get medical attention if symptoms occur for ingestion.
Medical Treatment
Treat symptomatically.
