Section 4: First Aid Measures
If accidental overexposure is suspected

Eye(s) Contact: Hold eyelids open and flush with water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention. If physician is not immediately available, eye irrigation should continue for additional 15 minutes.

Skin Contact: Immediately wipe excess material off skin with dry cloth and then wash with plenty of soap and water for at least 5 minutes. Seek medical attention if irritation develops or persists. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes, and clean thoroughly before re-use.
Inhalation: Remove from immediate source of exposure and assure that victim is breathing. If not breathing, administer cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR). If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen if available. Seek medical attention.

Ingestion: If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. If victim is conscious and alert, give 1-2 glasses of water to drink. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Seek medical attention immediately. Do not leave victim unattended. To prevent aspiration of swallowed product, lay victim on side with head lower than waist. Vomiting may occur spontaneously. If vomiting occurs and the victim is conscious, give water to further dilute the chemical.

Note to physician

Treatment: ND

Medical Conditions generally Aggravated by Exposure: Inhalation of product may aggravate existing chronic respiratory problems such as asthma, emphysema or bronchitis. Skin contact may aggravate existing skin disease.
