Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Direct water jet may scatter powder and spread contamination
Unusual Hazards: Combustion produces carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides, hydrochloric acid fumes
Protective Equipment: Full-body fire suit, self-contained breathing apparatus
Special Measures: Approach fire from upwind, prevent runoff from entering drains, ventilate area during cleanup
Personal Precautions: Evacuate area for spills, use personal protective equipment, avoid respiratory exposure
Environmental Precautions: Avoid release to waterways, prevent dust or residue from entering storm drains or soil
Cleanup Methods: Sweep up and place in suitable, closed container for disposal, use damp cloth to minimize airborne particles, ventilate affected area
Notification Requirements: Inform environmental authorities in accordance with local regulations for spills above reportable quantity
Handling: Work with adequate ventilation or perform handling in fume hood, train employees on safe methods, avoid creating dust, wash hands after use
Storage: Keep container tightly closed in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, store away from heat, strong oxidizers, and direct sunlight
Packaging Materials: Use original, clearly labeled packaging, secondary containment recommended in sensitive environments
Incompatibilities: Store apart from strong acids, bases, oxidizing materials
Exposure Limits: No published occupational exposure limits; apply workplace exposure guidelines for pharmaceutical ingredients
Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation, closed transfer systems, dust extraction and containment when handling bulk

Acute Toxicity: Harmful if swallowed; LD50 oral (rat) estimated between 500-2,000 mg/kg (published studies vary)
Irritation: Causes moderate skin and severe eye irritation
Sensitization: May cause allergic skin reactions in sensitive individuals
Chronic Effects: High doses believed to affect cardiovascular and respiratory systems; not classified as carcinogenic
Mutagenicity/Carcinogenicity: Animal studies found no marked mutagenic or carcinogenic effects with therapeutic doses
Other Effects: Symptoms include shortness of breath, tremors, palpitations if absorbed in high amounts
Ecotoxicity: May be toxic to aquatic organisms with long-term negative effects on aquatic environments
Persistence: Limited environmental degradation data; expected to undergo slow biological breakdown
Bioaccumulation: Potential for bioaccumulation considered low, given rapid metabolism in mammals
Mobility: Moderately mobile in soil, soluble in water could promote runoff if released in quantity
Other Concerns: Residues should be kept from watercourses and drains; pharmaceutical pollution contributes to ecosystem imbalances
