Specification:

 Lithium hydride , its cas register number is 7580-67-8. It also can be called Hydrure de lithium ; and Lithium monohydride . Lithium hydride(7580-67-8) is the compound of lithium and hydrogen. It is a colourless crystalline solid, although commercial samples appear gray. With a molecular mass of slightly less than 8, it is the lightest ionic compound.
 It is hazardous, so the first aid measures and others should be known. Such as: When on the skin: first, should flush skin with plenty of water immediately for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing. Secondly, get medical aid. Or in the eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Then get medical aid soon.

And as soon as to get medical aid. Then you have the ingesting of the product: If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
In addition, Lithium hydride (CAS NO.7580-67-8) is not compatible with strong oxidizing agents, acids, alcohols, oxygen, chlorine, and you must not take it with incompatible materials, light, ignition sources, exposure to air, exposure to moist air or water. And also prevent it to broken down into hazardous decomposition products: hydrogen gas, lithium hydroxide.
