Description of first aid measures Skin contact: Eye contact: Ingestion: Inhalation: Remove all contaminated clothes and footwear immediately unless stuck to skin. Wash immediately with plenty of soap and water. Seek medical advice if soreness or redness persist. Remove any contact lenses and open eyes wide apart. Immediately flood the eye with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,holding the eye open. Get medical attention if any discomfort continues Wash out mouth with water. If conscious, give half a litre of water to drink immediately. If unconscious and breathing is OK, place in the recovery position. Get medical attention immediately. Remove casualty from exposure ensuring one's own safety whilst doing so. Get medical advice if the symptons continue.
