irritation, defatting, and dermatitis.
Inhalation: Excessive inhalation of vapors can cause respiratory
irritation, headache, drowsiness and fatigue. High
concentrations of vapors are anesthetic and may cause
central nervous system effects such as dizziness.
Ingestion: Can cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea,
vomiting and diarrhea.
NOTICE: Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational
overexposure to solvents with permanent brain, nervous system,
liver or kidney damage and mucous membrane irritation.
INTENTIONAL misuse of this product by deliberately inhaling its
vapors may be harmful or fatal.
FIRST AID MEASURES
Eyes: Flush eyes gently with water for at least 15 minutes
lifting eyelids occasionally; get prompt medical attention
Skin: Wash thoroughly with soap and water; apply a mild skin cream.
Remove contaminated clothing.
Inhalation: Move affected person to fresh air; if breathing is
difficult, administer oxygen; if breathing has stopped,
give artificial respiration. Get medical attention.
Ingestion: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING! Get immediate medical attention.
