Ingestion

Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Place affected person on their side. Immediately call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. If vomiting occurs have person lean forward. If vomiting occurs, keep head below waistline. Aspiration into the lungs can occur during ingestion or vomiting and may cause lung injury.

Inhalation

When symptoms occur: go into open air and ventilate suspected area. Obtain medical attention if breathing difficulty persists. Prolonged exposure may cause irritation.

Skin Contact

Remove contaminated clothing. Drench affected area with water for at least 5 minutes. Obtain medical attention if irritation develops or persists. Prolonged exposure may cause skin irritation.

Eye Contact

Rinse cautiously with water for at least 5 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Obtain medical attention if irritation develops or persists. May cause slight irritation to eyes.

Other Information

• Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. If you feel unwell, seek medical advice (show the label where possible).
• May be fatal if swallowed and enters airways.
