First-Aid Measures
Eye contact with the electrolyte
Rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 10 minutes.
Rinse the eyes with boric acid solution if it is available.
Get comprehensive instructions at an eye clinic.
Skin contact with the electrolyte
Remove clothing soaked with the electrolyte immediately and wash off the main
body parts affected with plenty of water. In case of complaints, consult a doctor.
Skin that has come into contact with the electrolyte shows a soapy consistency,
which means that it must continue to be rinsed with water until this condition is
eliminated.
Swallowing electrolyte
Gargle with plenty of water and drink large quantities of water repeatedly.
Do not cause vomiting. Call for an emergency doctor promptly.
