SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES
4.1 Description of first aid measures
General advice                Move out of dangerous area. Place and transport victim in stable
                              position (lying sideways). Remove contaminated clothing immediately
                              and dispose of safely.
Inhalation                    Move to fresh air. Keep patient warm and at rest. Call a physician or
                              poison control center immediately.
Skin contact                  Immediately wash with plenty of soap and water for at least 15
                              minutes. Warm water may increase the subjective severity of the
                              irritation/paresthesia. This is not a sign of systemic poisoning. In case
                              of skin irritation, application of oils or lotions containing vitamin E may
                              be considered. If symptoms persist, call a physician.
Eye contact                   Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at
                              least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5
                              minutes, then continue rinsing eye. Warm water may increase the
                              subjective severity of the irritation/paresthesia. This is not a sign of
                              systemic poisoning. Apply soothing eye drops, if needed anaesthetic
                              eye drops. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
Ingestion                     Rinse out mouth and give water in small sips to drink. Induce vomiting
                              only, if: 1. patient is fully conscious, 2. medical aid is not readily
                              available, 3. a significant amount (more than a mouthful) has been
                              ingested and 4. time since ingestion is less than 1 hour. (Vomit should
                              not get into the respiratory tract.) Call a physician or poison control
                              center immediately.

Personal protective equipment
In normal use and handling conditions please refer to the label and/or leaflet. In all other cases the
following recommendations would apply.
Respiratory protection              If product is handled while not enclosed, and if contact may occur:
                                    Wear respirator with a particle filter mask (protection factor 4)
                                    conforming to European norm EN149FFP1 or equivalent.
                                    Respiratory protection should only be used to control residual risk of
                                    short duration activities, when all reasonably practicable steps have
                                    been taken to reduce exposure at source e.g. containment and/or
                                    local extract ventilation. Always follow respirator manufacturer's
                                    instructions regarding wearing and maintenance.
Hand protection                     Please observe the instructions regarding permeability and
                                    breakthrough time which are provided by the supplier of the gloves.
                                    Also take into consideration the specific local conditions under which
                                    the product is used, such as the danger of cuts, abrasion, and the

Assessment STOT Specific target organ toxicity – single exposure
Cyfluthrin: Based on available data, the classification criteria are not met.
Assessment STOT Specific target organ toxicity – repeated exposure
The toxic effects of Cyfluthrin are related to transient hyperactivity typical for pyrethroid neurotoxicity.
Assessment mutagenicity
Cyfluthrin was not mutagenic or genotoxic in a battery of in vitro and in vivo tests.
Assessment carcinogenicity
Cyfluthrin was not carcinogenic in lifetime feeding studies in rats and mice.
Assessment toxicity to reproduction
Cyfluthrin caused reproduction toxicity in a two-generation study in rats only at dose levels also toxic to
the parent animals. The reproduction toxicity seen with Cyfluthrin is related to parental toxicity.
