First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove casualty to fresh air and keep warm and at rest. If breathing is irregular or stopped, administer artificial respiration. Get medical advice/attention.
Remove contaminated, saturated clothing immediately. Wash off any skin contamination immediately. If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention.
Symptoms: skin irritation
Rinse immediately carefully and thoroughly with eye-bath or water. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Consult an ophthalmologist.
Symptoms: eye irritation
Rinse mouth immediately and drink 1 glass of of water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person or a person with cramps. Get medical advice/attention.
Immediate Medical Attention
Get medical advice/attention.
Medical Treatment
Treatment can be analogous to intoxication from alcoholic beverages. After massive inhalation administration of glucocorticoids (inhalative). If necessary, all further measures for pulmonary edema prophylaxis. If necessary, treat skin irritations with a dermatocorticoid foam.
