SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES

Description of First Aid Measures
After Inhalation: Have someone contact a physician or poison control center immediately. If conscious but symptoms (nausea, difficulty breathing, dizziness, etc.) are evident, first responders may give oxygen. If consciousness is impaired or patient is unconscious, oxygen and amyl nitrite should be administered by trained qualified medical squads. Amyl nitrite is given by breaking an ampoule in a gauze pad and inserting into the lip of the oxygen resuscitator mask for 15 seconds, and then taking it away for 15 seconds. Repeat this 5 or 6 times. If necessary, use a fresh ampoule every 3 minutes until the patient regains consciousness (usually 1 - 4 ampoules). Administer oxygen continuously. Guard against the ampoule entering the patient’s mouth. Move the patient to an uncontaminated area. Keep the patient warm and calm.
After Skin Contact: Have someone contact a physician or poison control center immediately. Immediately flush with large quantities of water for up to 5 minutes after contact and completely remove all contaminated clothing including shoes and boots. Flushing with water for up to 5 minutes is generally sufficient to effectively remove cyanide from the patient’s skin. Rescue workers should protect
themselves against exposure.
After Eye Contact: Have someone contact a physician or poison control center immediately. Immediately flush eyes with copious amounts of water for up to 5 minutes while holding the eyelids apart. Eye contact will require further evaluation and possibly treatment. Continue rinsing the eyes during transport to the hospital.
After Ingestion: Have someone call a physician or poison control center immediately. If conscious but symptoms (nausea, difficult breathing, dizziness, etc.) are evident, first responders may give oxygen. If consciousness is impaired, administer oxygen and amyl nitrite as directed under the “Inhalation” section. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do not induce vomiting as this could interfere with resuscitator use. If the patient is conscious, trained and qualified medical squads may give activated charcoal slurry. (50 grams of activated carbon slurried in 400 ml of water). Give 5 ml/1 kg. of wt. – about 350 ml for an average adult.

Most Important Symptoms and Effects, Both Acute and Delayed
After Inhalation: May cause weakness, dizziness, headache, vomiting, unconsciousness, and death.
After Skin Contact: Harmful in contact with skin. May cause severe irritation. Symptoms may include: redness, pain, swelling, itching, burning, and dryness.
After Eye Contact: Causes serious eye irritation. Symptoms may include: redness, pain, swelling, itching, burning, tearing, and blurred vision.
After Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed. Symptoms may include: gastrointestinal irritation, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting.
Chronic Symptoms: No data available

Indication of Any Immediate Medical Attention and Special Treatment Needed
If exposed or concerned, get medical advice and attention. If you feel unwell, seek medical advice (show the label where possible).


SECTION 5: FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES

Suitable Extinguishing Media
Use extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding fire such as foam, extinguishing powder, carbon dioxide, or water spray. In case of fire, cool endangered containers with water spray.

Unsuitable Extinguishing Media
High pressure water jet

Specific Hazards Arising From the Substance or Mixture
