FIRST AID MEASURES4.1 Description of first-aid measures
General advice
First aiders need to protect themselves. Show this material safety data sheet to the doctor
in attendance.
If inhaled
After inhalation: fresh air. Immediately call in physician. If breathing stops: immediately
apply artificial respiration, if necessary also oxygen.
In case of skin contact
In case of skin contact: Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with
water/ shower. Consult a physician.
In case of eye contact
After eye contact: rinse out with plenty of water. Remove contact lenses.
