HEART, LIVER & KIDNEYS. CHLOROCARBON/CHLOROFLUROCARBON (CFC) MATS. HAVE
PRODUCED SENSITIZATION OF THE MYOCARDIUM TO EPINEPHRINE IN LAB ANIMALS AND
COULD HAV SIMILAR EFFECT IN HUMANS. ADRENOMIMETIC ( E.G. EPINEPHERINE MAY BE
CONTRA-INDICATED EXCEPT FOR LIFE-SUSTAINING... (SUPDAT)
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Overexposure: NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
SIGNS & SYMPTOMS (OVEREXPOSURE): ...USES IN HUMANS ACUTELY OR CHRONICALLY
EXPOSED TO CHLOROCARBONS OR CFCS.
==============================================================================
FIRST AID
==============================================================================
EYES/SKIN:IMMEDIATELY FLUSH W/COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINS
WHILE REMOVING CONTAMD CLTHG/SHOES. ASSURE ADEQUATE FLUSHING OF EYES BY
SEPARATING EYELIDS W/FINGERS. REMOVE & WASH CONTAMD CLTHG PROMPTLY.
INHAL:REMOVE TO FRESH AI R. IF NOT BREATHING, GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. IF
BREATHING IS DIFFICULT, GIVE OXYGEN. INGEST:WASH OUT MOUTH W/WATER PROVIDED
PERSON IS CONSCIOUS. CALL MD.
