General advice Inhalation
Skin contact
Eye contact
Ingestion
Remove contaminated clothing immediately and dispose of safely.
Move the victim to fresh air and keep at rest. Call a physician or poison control center immediately.
Immediately wash with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes. Warm water may increase the subjective severity of the irritation/paresthesia. This is not a sign of systemic poisoning. In case of skin irritation, application of oils or lotions containing vitamin E may be considered. If symptoms persist, call a physician.
Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue rinsing eye. Warm water may increase the subjective severity of the irritation/paresthesia. This is not a sign of systemic poisoning. Apply soothing eye drops, if needed anaesthetic eye drops. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
Keep at rest. Rinse mouth. Do NOT induce vomiting. Call a physician or poison control center immediately.
4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

Risks Treatment
This product contains a pyrethroid. Pyrethroid poisoning should not be confused with carbamate or organophosphate poisoning.
Local treatment: Initial treatment: symptomatic.
Systemic treatment: Initial treatment: symptomatic. Monitor: respiratory and cardiac functions. In case of ingestion gastric lavage should be considered in cases of significant ingestions only within the first 2 hours. However, the application of activated charcoal and sodium sulphate is always advisable. Keep respiratory tract clear. Oxygen or artificial respiration if needed. In case of convulsions, a benzodiazepine (e.g. diazepam) should be given according to standard regimens. If not effective, phenobarbital may be used. Contraindication: atropine. Contraindication: derivatives of adrenaline. There is no specific antidote. Recovery is spontaneous and without sequelae.

8.2 Exposure controls
Refer to COSHH assessment (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (Amendment) Regulations 2004). Engineering controls should be used in preference to personal protective equipment wherever practicable. Refer also to COSHH Essentials.
Personal protective equipment
In normal use conditions personal protective equipment is not deemed to be necessary. If there is a potential for excessive exposure the following applies:
Respiratory protection
Respiratory protection is not required under anticipated circumstances of exposure.
Respiratory protection should only be used to control residual risk of short duration activities, when all reasonably practicable steps have been taken to reduce exposure at source e.g. containment and/or local extract ventilation. Always follow respirator manufacturer’s instructions regarding wearing and maintenance.
Hand protection
Wear CE Marked (or equivalent) nitrile rubber gloves (minimum thickness of 0,4 mm). Wash when contaminated and dispose of when contaminated inside, when perforated or when contamination
on the outside cannot be removed. Wash hands frequently and always before eating, drinking, smoking or using the toilet.
Eye protection
Skin and body protection
Wear goggles (conforming to EN166, Field of Use = 5 or equivalent).
Wear standard coveralls and Category 3 Type 6 suit.
If there is a risk of significant exposure, consider a higher protective type suit.
Wear two layers of clothing wherever possible. Polyester/cotton or cotton overalls should be worn under chemical protection suit and should be professionally laundered frequently.

Assessment Carcinogenicity
Myclobutanil was not carcinogenic in lifetime feeding studies in rats and mice. Cypermethrin was not carcinogenic in lifetime feeding studies in rats and mice.
Assessment toxicity to reproduction
Myclobutanil caused reproduction toxicity in generation studies in rats only at dose levels also toxic to the parent animals.
