Following skin contact: After contact with skin, wash immediately with polyethylene glycol, followed by plenty of
water. Cover with sterile dressing material to protect against infection. Seek medical
attention.
After eye contact: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of flowing water for 10 to 15 minutes holding eyelids
apart. Subsequently seek the immediate attention of an ophthalmologist.
After swallowing: Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Drink large quantities of water.
Do not induce vomiting. Risk of perforation!
Immediately get medical attention. Do not try to neutralize.
4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
In case of inhalation:
Mucous membrane irritation, cough, shortage of breath, damage of respiratory tract.
Pulmonary edema is possible. Symptoms may occur with delay.
In case of ingestion: Burns in the mouth, pharynx, oesophagus, and gastrointestinal tract.
Risk of perforation in the oesophagus and stomach.
After contact with skin: burns
After eye contact: Burns. Danger of loss of sight!
4.3 Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Treat symptomatically. Treatment as in case of alkali cauterizations.
On irritation of the respiratory system use an aerosol dispenser and treat with 5 doses of
dexamethasone aerosol (e.g. Auxiloson, Thomae) every 10 minutes until symptoms cease.
