--- --- V. HEALTH HAZARD
--- Carcinogen Information: NONE CURRENTLY KNOWN.
ACUTE EFFECTS OF OVER EXPOSURE
--- Swallowing: THE ACUTE ORAL TOXICITY LD50 (RATS) > 5,000 MG/KG. EPA CATEGORY IV.
Skin Absorption: THE ACUTE DERMAL TOXICITY LD50 (RABBITS) >
5,000 MG/KG. EPA CATEGORY III.
Inhalation: THE ACUTE INHALATION TOXICITY LC50 (RATS) >
5.01 MG/L/4 HR. EPA CATEGORY III.
Skin contact: SLIGHTLY IRRITATING. REPEATED OR PROLONGED SKIN CONTACT MAY CAUSE REDDENING, ITCHING AND INFLAMMATION. EPA CATEGORY IV.
Eye Contact: SEVERELY IRRITATING TO THE EYES. MAY CAUSE SLIGHT TRANSIENT IRRITATION. EPA CATEGORY II.
Chronic Effects: NITRATES CAUSE DILATION OF BLOOD VESSELS AND METHEMOGLOBIN FORMATION, WHICH RESULTS IN LOW BLOOD PRESSURE AND DECREASED BLOOD OXYGEN CARRYING CAPACITY.
Other Hazard: THOSE WITH A HISTORY OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE MAY HAVE AGGRAVATED REACTIONS FROM
OVEREXPOSURE.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
--- Swallowing: GIVE A LARGE AMOUNT OF WATER TO DRINK. MAKE PERSON VOMIT AND IMMEDIATELY CALL A PHYSICIAN.
DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING OR GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS PERSON.
Skin: REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND WASH SKIN THOROUGHLY WITH SOAP AND WATER. CALL A PHYSICIAN IF IRRITATION PERSISTS.
Inhalation: MOVE VICTIM TO FRESH AIR. GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION IF NEEDED. CALL A PHYSICIAN.
Eyes: FLUSH EYES WITH WATER FOR 15 MINUTES. OBTAIN MEDICAL ATTENTION IF IRRITATION PERSISTS.
Notes to Physician: AMMONIUM NITRATE AND UREA HAVE DIURETIC ACTIONS. LARGE DOSES MAY CAUSE NAUSEA AND VOMITING. ACIDOSIS MAY OCCUR IN PRESENCE OF IMPAIRED RENAL FUNCTION; ALSO DURING PROLONGED USE IN PERSONS WITH NORMAL KIDNEY FUNCTION.
TREAT FOR METHEMOGLOBINEMIA. PERFORM GASTRIC LAVAGE AND ADMINISTER CHARCOAL IF LARGE AMOUNTS ARE INGESTED.
