Effects of Exposure: AMMONIUM HYDROXIDE IS CORR IRRITANT TO SKIN, EYE, RESP
  TRACT & MUC MEMBS. CAN CAUSE SEV BURNS, EYE & LUNG INJURY AT HIGH
  SOLN CONCS. ACUTE: MILD EXPOS MAY CAUSE IRRIT OF NOSE (COUGHING, SNEEZING),
  RED NESS & ITCHING OF SKIN, REDNESS & IRRITOF EYES. EXPOS AT HIGHER
  CONCS MAY CAUSE RESP DISTRESS, PULM (EFTS OF OVEREXP)
Explanation Of Carcinogenicity: NOT RELEVANT
Signs And Symptions Of Overexposure: HLTH HAZ: EDEMA, SHOCK, CONVULSIONS,
  CYANOSIS, CNS DEPRESS; CHEM BURNS TO EYES & SKIN MAY OCCUR RESULTING IN
  CORROSIVE DMG INCLUDING ULCERATION & TEMPORARY BLINDNESS. INGEST MAY RSLT
  IN NAUS, VOMIT, G I IRRIT, EXCESSIVE SALIVATION; IN SEVERE CASES PERFORATION,
  CNS DEPRESS, SHOCK, CONVULSIONS & PULM EDEMA CAN (SUPDAT)
Medical Cond Aggravated By Exposure: SKIN AND RESPIRATORY DISEASE AGGRAVATED BY
  EXPOSURE.
First Aid: INHAL: MOVE VICTIM TO FRESH AIR IMMED, GIVE ARTF RESP IF NECESSARY.
  GET MED AID AT ONCE. SKIN: REMOVE CONTAM CLTHG, WASH W/SOAP & WATER.
  W/DRY STERILE DRESSING (SECURE, NOT TIGHT). GET MED AID AT ONCE. EYES: IMMED
