          irritation develops or persists. Wash clothing before reuse.
     
Ingestion:
          Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do NOT induce
          vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and drink 2-4 cupfuls
          of milk or water. Wash mouth out with water. Get medical aid if
          irritation or symptoms occur.
     
Inhalation:
          Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not
          breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
          give oxygen. Get medical aid if cough or other symptoms appear.
     
Notes to Physician:
          Treat symptomatically and supportively.
