Section 4 First Aid Measures
Inhalation If product is inhaled, move exposed individual to fresh air. If individual is not
breathing, begin artificial respiration immediately and obtain medical attention.
Eye Contact If product is splashed in eyes, wash eyes under gently running water for
15 minutes or longer, making sure that the eyelids are held open. Obtain
medical attention.
Skin Contact In case of skin contact, flush with copious amounts of water for at least 15
minutes. Then gently wash skin with soap and water; rinse well. If product
contacted broken skin, soak the wound area with a 1:10 dilution of fresh
household bleach for 10 minutes. Rinse with water to remove residual bleach.
