SECTION 4: First aid measures
4.1 Description of first aid measures
First-aid measures after inhalation
Move to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Seek medical attention.
First-aid measures after skin contact
Wash with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing. Seek medical attention if irritation persists.
First-aid measures after eye contact
Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do. Seek medical attention.
First-aid measures after ingestion
Give gastric lavage using 1% solution of sodium or magnesium sulfate; leave 15-30 gm magnesium sulfate in 6-8 oz. of water in the stomach as antidote and cathartic; egg white, milk, and tannin are useful demulcents; atropine sulfate and other antispasmodics may relieve abdominal pain, but morphine may be necessary.
