First Aid Measures

Inhalation: Remove person to fresh air, keep at rest in position comfortable for breathing, seek medical attention for persistent symptoms
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing, wash skin with soap and water for several minutes, obtain medical attention for rash or persistent irritation
Eye Contact: Rinse cautiously with water for at least 15 minutes while holding eyelids open, remove contact lenses if present and easy to do, continue rinsing, seek immediate medical advice
Ingestion: Rinse mouth, do not induce vomiting unless directed by medical personnel, get medical attention immediately
Most Important Symptoms and Effects: Eye redness, irritation, nausea, hematologic symptoms, possible serous toxicity from repeated exposure
Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically; monitor for signs of bleeding or thrombocytopenia due to antiplatelet activity

Fire-Fighting Measures

Suitable Extinguishing Media: Use foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide, or water spray for small fires; avoid high-pressure water jets
Special Exposure Hazards: Combustion may produce hazardous gases including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, hydrogen chloride, sulfur oxides
Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Use self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear
Precautions: Avoid inhaling fumes, evacuate area if large quantities involved or fire uncontrolled
Additional Information: Prevent fire-fighting water from entering drains or watercourses; collect separately for disposal

Accidental Release Measures

Personal Precautions: Restrict access to area; ventilate; use suitable protective equipment including gloves, goggles, and dust respirator
Environmental Precautions: Prevent entry into drains, sewers, surface, and groundwater; alert authorities in case of spillage to water environment
Methods for Containment: Sweep or scoop up material avoiding dust generation, transfer to suitable containers for disposal
Clean-up Procedures: Decontaminate area with detergent and water; carry out clean-up wearing suitable PPE; dispose of contaminated materials in accordance with regulatory requirements

Handling and Storage

Handling Precautions: Minimize dust creation; avoid inhalation and skin contact; use in well-ventilated area or chemical fume hood; keep containers tightly closed
Safe Storage: Store at controlled room temperature (15-30°C), away from incompatible substances like strong oxidizing agents, acids, bases
Special Requirements: Store in original labeled packaging; protect from light and moisture; restrict access to qualified personnel; maintain inventory logs per regulatory protocols
Incompatibilities: Avoid exposure to conditions of high humidity and heat

Exposure Controls and Personal Protection

Occupational Exposure Limits: No established OEL for prasugrel; follow internal occupational health standards if available
Engineering Controls: Handle in closed systems, local exhaust ventilation or fume hood
Personal Protective Equipment: Nitrile gloves, protective lab coat, chemical splash goggles, fit-tested NIOSH-approved respirator in dusty environments
