[Fire Fighting] Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full protective gear. During a fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or combustion. Use agent most appropriate to extinguish fire. | |
[Ingestion] Seek medical attention. If individual is drowsy or unconscious, do not give anything by mouth; place individual on the left side with the head down. Contact a physician, medical facility, or poison control center for advice about whether to induce vomiting. If possible, do not leave individual unattended. | |
[Inhalation] If symptoms develop, move individual away from exposure and into fresh air. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. Keep person warm and quiet; seek immediate medical attention. | |
[Skin] Flush skin with plenty of soap and water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. | |
[Eyes] If symptoms develop, immediately move individual away from exposure and into fresh air. Flush eyes gently with water for at least 15 minutes while holding eyelids apart; seek immediate medical attention. | |
[Storage] Keep in a cool, dry, dark location in a tightly sealed container or cylinder. Keep away from incompatible materials, ignition sources and untrained individuals. Secure and label area. Protect containers/cylinders from physical damage. | |
[Handling] All chemicals should be considered hazardous. Avoid direct physical contact. Use appropriate, approved safety equipment. Untrained individuals should not handle this chemical or its container. Handling should occur in a chemical fume hood. | |
[Inhalation] Interstitial pneumonitis occurs rarely and may be an allergic reaction during therapeutic use. | |
[Skin] Pruritus, hyperpigmentation, flushing, alopecia, and jaundice may be noted. Herpetic lesions may occur. | |
[Eyes] Nystagmus, diplopia, papilledema, photophobia and retinal hemorrhage may occur with therapeutic use. | |
[Ingestion] Ausea, vomiting and diarrhea may occur. | |
[Personal Protection] Chemical splash goggles in compliance with OSHA regulations are advised; however, OSHA regulations also permit other type safety glasses. Whre chemical resistant gloves. To prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact, wear impervious clothing and boots. | |
[Respirators] Respiratory protection should be an adjunct to and not a substitute for engineering controls.<BR>Organic vapor acid gas canister; done in the open, an area away from drafts and traffic | |
[Exposure Effects] Procarbazine is a weak mao inhibitor. A hypertensive reaction may occur with concurrent use of sympathomimetic agents, tricyclic antidepressants, and foods with high tyramine content; these reactions are poorly documented. with therapeutic use - paresthesias, neuropathies, dizziness, headache, insomnia, frequent nightmares, nervousness, depression, hallucinations, seizures, coma and tremors have been reported. Procarbazine is not recommended for use during pregnancy or lactation. | |
