The product, as with many petroleum products, may cause minor skin,
eye, and lung irritation, but good hygienic practices can minimize
these effects.
Normal use of this product does not result in generation of an oil
mist. However if an oil mist is generated, overexposure can cause
minor and reversible irritation to the eyes, skin, and especially
the lungs. Proper personal protective equipment and sufficient
ventilation can provide adequate protection.

4. FIRST AID MEASURES
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inhalation
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial
respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Call a
physician.
Skin Contact
Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation develops
and persists, consult a physician.
If injected under the skin, necrosis could occur. See physician.
Eye Contact
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for
at least 15 minutes. Call a physician.
Ingestion
Material poses an aspiration hazard. If swallowed, do not induce
vomiting. Immediately give 2 glasses of water. Never give anything
by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a physician.
If vomiting occurs naturally, have victim lean forward to reduce the
risk of aspiration.
Notes to Physicians
Activated charcoal mixture may be administered. To prepare activated
charcoal mixture, suspend 50 grams activated charcoal in 400 mL water
and mix thoroughly. Administer 5 mL/kg, or 350 mL for an average
adult.
High velocity injection under the skin can cause a bloodless puncture
wound and result in necrosis. Immediate attention by a surgical
specialist is recommended.
