First-Aid Measures

Description of first aid measures

General advice:

First aid personnel should pay attention to their own safety. If the patient is likely to become

unconscious, place and transport in stable sideways position (recovery position). Immediately

remove contaminated clothing.

If inhaled:

If breathing difficulties develop, aid in breathing and seek immediate medical attention.

If on skin:

Immediately wash thoroughly with plenty of water, apply sterile dressings, consult a skin specialist.

If in eyes:

Hold eyes open and rinse slowly and gently with water for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove contact lenses,

if present, after first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing.

Do not induce vomiting. Immediately rinse mouth and then drink 200-300 ml of water, seek medical

attention.

Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Symptoms: Information, i.e. additional information on symptoms and effects may be included in the

GHS labeling phrases available in Section 2 and in the Toxicological assessments available in

Section 11.

Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed

Note to physician

Treatment: Treat according to symptoms (decontamination, vital functions), no known specific antidote.
