EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: white to almost white crystalline powder.
Warning! Causes eye, skin, and respiratory tract
irritation. May cause reproductive and fetal effects.
Target Organs: Blood, spleen, respiratory
system, eyes, skin.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. May be harmful if absorbed through the skin.
Patch test (humans): negative. Sensitization test (guinea pig):
negative. (Merck KGaA)
Ingestion:
May cause irritation of the digestive tract. May be harmful if
swallowed.
Used therapeutically in large oral doses, sulfanilamide has produced
damage to the liver, the blood system and has caused photosensitive
skin reactions. This level of exposure is not likely under
conditions of usual commercial or industrial use.
Inhalation:
Causes respiratory tract irritation. May be harmful if inhaled.
Chronic:
May cause reproductive and fetal effects. Repeated exposure may
cause damage to the spleen. Chronic exposure may cause blood
effects. Animal studies have reported the development of tumors.

Section 4 - First Aid Measures
|
Eyes:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin:
Get medical aid. Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Ingestion:
Do not induce vomiting. Get medical aid.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not
breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Get medical aid.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively.
