LUNGS,TEETH EROSION.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:LEAD IS LISTED BY IARC, NTP, AS A
PROBABLE CARCINOGEN, FOR WHICH THERE IS INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE.
Effects of Overexposure:ACID:SEVERE IRRITATION OR BURNS TO EYES, NOSE
AND THROAT. PULMONARY EDEMA, BRONICAL EMPHYSEMA, CONJUNCTIVITIS,
STOMATITIS, DENTAL EROSION, NAUSEA AND VOMITING. LEAD:STOMACH
CRAMPS, ANEMIA AND NERVE DA MAGE.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:PERSONS WITH A HISTORY OF AILMENTS
OR WITH A PRE-EXISTING DISEASE INVOLVING THE RESPIRATORY TRACT MAY
BE AT INCREASED RISK FROM EXPOSURE.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:INHALATION:REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. RESUSCITATE IF NOT BREATHING.
GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. EYES:IMMEDIATELY FLUSH WITH PLENTY OF WATER
FOR 15 MINUTES HOLDING EYELIDS OPEN. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.
SKIN:REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING. WASH WITH PLENTYOF WATER FOR 15
MINUTES. GET MEDICAL ADVICE. INGESTION:DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING.
GIVE NOTHING BY MOUTH IF UNCONSCIOUS. GET IMMEDIATE MEDICAL
ATTENTION.
