Respiratory System
Skin
Carcinogenicity
Not considered carcinogenic by NTP, IARC, and OSHA
4. FIRST AID MEASURES
Inhalation: Remove from exposure. If there is difficulty in breathing, give oxygen. Seek medical attention if symptoms
persist.
Skin contact: Wash skin with water. Continue washing for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical attention if blistering
occurs or redness persists.
Eye contact: Immediately flush the eye with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, holding the eye open. Obtain medical
attention if soreness or redness persists.
Ingestion: Wash out mouth with water. Have victim drink 1-3 glasses of water to dilute stomach contents. Immediate
medical attention is required Never administer anything by mouth if a victim is losing conciousness, is unconcious or is
convulsing.
Notes to physician
Treat symptomatically.
