4. Hazard Identification
Health Effects:
Skin erythema and other hypersensitivity reactions may occur in pigs on rare occasions following treatment. If this occurs then discontinue use until the condition subsides, then resume use.
Acute
Swallowed:
Moderately toxic. Tests on mice using pure Tiamulin hydrogen fumarate indicate moderate toxicity following a single dose Moderately toxic. May cause skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated overexposure may cause sensitisation
Inhaled:
Moderately toxic. May cause irritation of the respiratory tract. Prolonged or repeated overexposure may cause sensitisation.
Chronic:
Mild changes in the liver and reversible ECG changes were found after repeated high doses of Tiamulin fumarate to experimental animals. ce
Ingestion:
May cause stomach distress, nausea or vomiting. space
Target organs:

Signs and symptoms:
Symptoms may include redness, oedema, drying, defatting and cracking of the skin. Symptoms of overexposure may be headache, dizziness, tiredness, nausea and vomiting.
5. First Aid measures
Swallowed:
Wash mouth with plenty of water. Take patient to medical center or physician. If more than 15 minutes from hospital, induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Make sure to flush under the eyelids. Consult a physician for definitive treatment. Remove contaminated clothing and wash skin with plenty of soap and water. Continue flushing with water for several minutes. Consult a physician if irritation continues or if a large skin area is affected.
5. First Aid measures continued

Inhaled:
Remove to fresh air. Remove contaminated clothing and loosen remaining clothing. Keep warm and at rest. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing difficult, give oxygen. Seek medical advice if symptoms persist or if unconscious.
Slight inhalation:
Remove person from contaminated area to fresh air. Apply artificial respiration if needed
Hazardous inhalation

Slight ingestion
Not for human use. If swallowed seek medical assistance.
