Skin contact

Rinse with water. Soap may be used. Take victim to a doctor if irritation persists.

Symptoms: Slight irritation.

Eye contact

Rinse with water. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Do not apply (chemical) neutralizing agents without medical advice.

Symptoms: Slight irritation.

Ingestion

Rinse mouth with water. Immediately after ingestion: give lots of water to drink. Victim is fully conscious: immediately induce vomiting. Call Poison Information Centre (www.big.be/antigif.html). Consult a doctor/medical service if you feel unwell.
