FIRST AID MEASURES

SWALLOWED • If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting.
• If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down
position, if possible) to maintain open airway and prevent aspiration.
• Observe the patient carefully.
• Never give liquid to a person showing signs of being sleepy or with reduced
awareness; i.e. becoming unconscious.
• Give water to rinse out mouth, then provide liquid slowly and as much as
casualty can comfortably drink.
• Seek medical advice.
EYE • If this product comes in contact with the eyes:
• Wash out immediately with fresh running water.
• Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from
eye and moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids.
• Seek medical attention without delay; if pain persists or recurs seek medical
attention.
• Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by
skilled personnel.
SKIN • If skin contact occurs:
• Immediately remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear.
• Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available).
• Seek medical attention in event of irritation.
INHALED • If dust is inhaled, remove from contaminated area.
• Encourage patient to blow nose to ensure clear passage of breathing.
• If irritation or discomfort persists seek medical attention.
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN
Symptoms of vasodilation and reflex tachycardia may present following organic nitrate overdose;
most organic nitrates are extensively metabolised by hydrolysis to inorganic nitrites. Organic nitrates
and nitrites are readily absorbed through the skin, lungs, mucosa and gastro-intestinal tract.
The toxicity of nitrates and nitrites result from their vasodilating properties and their propensity to
form methaemoglobin.
• Most produce a peak effect within 30 minutes.
• Clinical signs of cyanosis appear before other symptoms because of the dark pigmentation of
methaemoglobin.

• Initial attention should be directed towards improving oxygen delivery, with assisted
ventilation, if necessary. Hyperbaric oxygen has not demonstrated conclusive benefits.
• Institute cardiac monitoring, especially in patients with coronary artery or pulmonary disease.
• Hypotension should respond to Trendelenburg's position and intravenous fluids; otherwise
dopamine may be needed.
• Naloxone, glucose and thiamine should be given if ingestion is suspected.
• Decontaminate using Ipecac Syrup for alert patients or lavage for obtunded patients who
present within 2-4 hours of ingestion.
• Symptomatic patients with methaemoglobin levels over 30% should receive methylene blue.
(Cyanosis alone is not an indication for treatment). The usual dose is 1-2 mg/kg of a 1%
solution (10 mg/ml) IV over 5 minutes; repeat, using the same dose if symptoms of hypoxia fail
to subside within 1 hour.

BIOLOGICAL EXPOSURE INDEX - BEI
These represent the determinants observed in specimens collected from a healthy worker who has
been exposed at the Exposure Standard (ES or TLV):
Determinant 1 Index Sampling Time Comments
Methaemoglobin in blood 1.5% of haemoglobin During or end of shift B, NS, SQ
B: Background levels occur in specimens collected from subjects NOT exposed

NS: Non-specific determinant; also observed after exposure to other materials
SQ: Semi-quantitative determinant - Interpretation may be ambiguous; should be used as a
screening test or confirmatory test
