First-aid measures

Inhalation: Move exposed person to fresh air. Keep person warm and at rest.

If not breathing, if breathing is irregular or if respiratory arrest occurs,

provide artificial respiration or oxygen by trained personnel. It may

be dangerous to the person providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth

resuscitation. Get medical attention if adverse health effects persist

or are severe. If unconscious, place in recovery position and get

medical attention immediately. Maintain an open airway. Loosen

tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband.

Ingestion: Wash out mouth with water. Move exposed person to fresh air.

Keep person warm and at rest. If material has been swallowed and

the exposed person is conscious, give small quantities of water to

drink. Stop if the exposed person feels sick as vomiting may be

dangerous. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by

medical personnel. If vomiting occurs, the head should be kept low

so that vomit does not enter the lungs. Get medical attention if

adverse health effects persist or are severe. Never give anything by

mouth to an unconscious person. If unconscious, place in recovery

position and get medical attention immediately. Maintain an open

airway. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband.
