SECTION 3: Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview:	Liquid is irritating and moderately caustic to skin, eyes and respiratory tract. Moisture will produce isopropanol vapor which may cause drowsiness. May impair fertility. Possible risk of irreversible effects.
Primary Routes of Exposure:	Inhalation, ingestion, contact with skin and eyes.
Eye Contact:	May cause moderate irritation of the eyes.
Skin Contact:	Dehydrating agent. Liquid may cause mild irritation of the skin.
Inhalation:	Isopropanol vapor is irritating to the nose and respiratory tract and cause headache, dizziness, and drowsiness. Harmful if inhaled.
Ingestion:	Harmful if swallowed. Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal distress, dizziness, weakness and drowsiness.
Acute Health Effects:	Toluene is an irritant to skin, eyes and respiratory tract. Exposure may cause impairment of coordination and reaction time.
Chronic Health Effects:	Chronic toluene poisoning may result in bone marrow or liver injury. may impair fertility. Possible risk of irreversible effects.
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 soap and 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.
Ingestion:	Seek medical attention immediately. Keep the victim calm. Give the victim water (only if conscious).
