persists.
Ingestion: Rinse out mouth immediately with water. Consult a doctor if irritation
persists.
Protection of
first aider: Avoid inhalation, ingestion, contact with skin and eyes (see Section 8.)
4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Inhalation: Spray mists may cause coughing, chest tightness, feeling of chest
pressure.
Ingestion: May cause discomfort if swallowed. May cause internal injury
