SECTION 2: Hazards identification
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW May be fatal if swallowed. Harmful if absorbed through skin or inhaled. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling. Causes moderate eye irritation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing. Avoid breathing vapors. Chlorpyrifos is a cholinesterase inhibitor. If exposed, plasma and red blood cell cholinesterase tests may indicate degree of exposure (baseline data are use- ful). Treat symptomatically. Atropine, only by injection, is an antidote. Oximes, such as 2-PAM/protopam, may be therapeutic if used early; however, use only in con- junction with atropine. This product is an organophos- phorus ester that inhibits cholinesterase.
