HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION Most important hazards: Specific hazards Harmful. Harmful by inhalation. Irritating to eyes, respiratory system and skin. May cause sensitization by inhalation and skin contact. Inhalation of vapours may cause irritation of the respiratory system in very susceptible persons - breathing difficulties / asthma. 4. FIRST AID MEASURES General advice: Inhalation: Remove from exposure, lie down. Skin contact: Remove contaminated clothing immediately and wash affected skin with soap and water. If skin irritation persists, call a physician. Eye contact: Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and consult a physician. Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Call a physician immediately. Do not give milk / water. Move to fresh air. Consult a physician after significant exposure.
