First-aid measures
- General advice:
In general, if in doubt or if symptoms persist, always call a doctor. Do not make swallowed anything to unconscious person.
- Following inhalation:
Take the patient in the open air and consult a doctor. if breathing is stopped or irregular, practice artificial respiration and call a doctor. Give nothing by mouth.
- Following skin contact: Rinse skin with water/shower. Remove contaminated clothing and wash skin with soap and water.
- Following eye contact: Wash thoroughly with fresh, clean water for 15 minutes holding the eyelids open.
Regardless of the initial state, refer the patient to an ophthalmologist and show him the label. If there is any redness, pain or visual impairment, consult an ophthalmologist.
- Following ingestion: In case of ingestion, consult a doctor showing him label to judge the opportunities of monitoring and subsequent treatment in hospital, if necessary.
Make drink an antidote (solution of sodium sulfate or magnesium sulfate) if the person is conscious.
-Main symptoms and effects, acute and delayed :
Irritant to eyes, skin and respiratory ways.
Product may have effects on nervous system.
Product may cause hypokalemia, resulting in cardiac and muscular disorders.
Insoluble barium compound inhaled have been the source of barytosis, pneumoconiosis characterized radiologically by modular opacities usually under pseudotumors without fibrosis evolution, at least when the dust does not contain free cilica crystallized.
In case of skin and eye contact :
Contact with skin : Redness. Pain. Skin burns.
Contact with eyes : Redness. Pain. Blurred vision.
If swallowed : Ingestion may cause important irritation and burns in mouth, the throat, oesophagus and stomach. In case of accidental ingestion, there is a risk of oral mucosal lesions and lesions of throat. The decomposition hydrogen peroxide leads to gastric or oesophageal distention : the local hemorrhage are possible. Ingestion may cause massive rupture of the colon with gangrene intestinal embolism.
If inhaled : Burning sensation. Cough. Breathing difficult. Breathlessness. Sore throat.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment necessary : If swallowed, make drink a sodium sulfate solution if the person is conscious.
