Inhalation
After inhalation: fresh air. If breathing stops: mouth-to-mouth breathing or artificial respiration. Oxygen if necessary. Immediately call in physician.
Skin Contact
After skin contact: wash off with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing. Consult a physician.
Eye Contact
After eye contact: rinse out with plenty of water. Call in ophthalmologist. Remove contact lenses.
