Section IV.        First Aid Measures    
    Eye Contact        Check for and remove any contact lenses. DO NOT use an eye ointment. Flush eyes with running water for a minimum    
    of 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Seek medical attention. Treat symptomatically and
    supportively.
    Skin Contact
    If the chemical gets spilled on a clothed portion of the body, remove the contaminated clothes as quickly as possible,
    protecting your own hands and body. Place the victim under a deluge shower. If the chemical touches the victim's
    exposed skin, such as the hands: Gently and thoroughly wash the contaminated skin with running water and non-abrasive
    soap. Be particularly careful to clean folds, crevices, creases and groin. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient. Seek
    medical attention. Treat symptomatically and supportively. Wash any contaminated clothing before reusing.
    If the victim is not breathing, perform artificial respiration. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. If
    Inhalation
    breathing is difficult, oxygen can be administered. Seek medical attention. Treat symptomatically and supportively.
    Ingestion        Remove dentures if any. Have conscious person drink several glasses of water or milk. INDUCE VOMITING by sticking    
    finger in throat. Lower the head so that the vomit will not reenter the mouth and throat. NEVER give an unconscious
    person anything to ingest. Seek medical attention. Treat symptomatically and supportively.
