First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
If breathing is difficult, remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
Symptoms: May cause respiratory tract irritation.
If irritation occurs, flush skin with plenty of water. Get medical attention if irritation persists.
Symptoms: May cause skin irritation. Symptoms may include redness, drying, defatting and cracking of the skin.
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water. Remove contact lenses, if worn. If irritation persists, get medical attention.
Symptoms: May cause eye irritation. Symptoms may include discomfort or pain, excess blinking and tear production, with possible redness and swelling.
If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell.
Symptoms: May be harmful if swallowed. May cause stomach distress, nausea or vomiting. If sufficient quantities are ingested, Decarbamoylsaxitoxin (dcSTX) dihydrochloride may cause paresthesia (numbness), paralysis, respiratory arrest.
Immediate Medical Attention
In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show the label or SDS where possible).
