SECTION 3: Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview: May be mildly irritating to skin, eyes and the respiratory tract. Bromide exposure may cause central nervous system effects and skin rashes.
Primary Routes of Exposure: Contact with skin and eyes. Inhalation of dust.
Eye Contact: May be a mild irritant to the eyes.
Skin Contact: May cause slight irritation of the skin.
Inhalation: Dust may cause irritation to the respiratory tract; symptoms may include coughing and shortness of breath.
Ingestion: May cause nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain and produce central nervous system effects.
Acute Health Effects: Symptoms of bromide ingestion may include skin rash, blurred vision, drowsiness, irritability, dizziness, mania, hallucinations, and coma.
Chronic Health Effects: Repeated or prolonged exposure to bromides by any route may cause skin rashes (bromaderma) and central nervous system depression, including ataxia, psychoses, memory loss, irritability, and headache.
NTP: No
IARC: No
OSHA: No
SECTION 4: First Aid Measures
Eye Exposure: Immediately flush the eyes with copious amounts of water for at least 10-15 minutes. A victim may need assistance in keeping their eye lids open. Get immediate medical attention.
Skin Exposure: Wash the affected area with water. Remove contaminated clothes if necessary. Seek medical assistance if irritation persists.
Inhalation: Remove the victim to fresh air. Closely monitor the victim for signs of respiratory problems, such as difficulty in breathing, coughing, wheezing, or pain. In such cases seek immediate medical assistance.
