| [Handling] All chemicals should be considered hazardous. Avoid direct physical contact. Use appropriate, approved safety equipment. Untrained individuals should not handle this chemical or its container. Handling should occur in a chemical fume hood. | |
| [Ingestion] Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea may be noted following ingestion. | |
| [Skin] Cyanosis unresponsive to oxygen therapy may be noted in patients with methemoglobinemia due to absorption of excessive amounts of these agents. | |
| [Personal Protection] Use good sanitary practices. | |
| [Respirators] Use NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator appropriate for exposure of concern. | |
