SKIN: Remove any contaminated clothing. Wash skin with soap and water. Call a physician if irritation persists. Launder clothing before reuse.
INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting. Call a physician and/or transport to an emergency facility. EYES: Irrigate immediately and continuously for 15 minutes. Consult a physician.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Active ingredient is a cholinesterase inhibitor affecting the central and peripheral nervous systems and producing cardiac and respiratory depression. Atropine sulfate in large doses is an antidote. Two to four mg intravenously or intramuscularly as soon as cyanosis is overcome. Repeat at 5 to 10 minutes intervals until signs of atropinization appear. 2-PAM chloride is a pharmacological antidote and may be administered as an adjunct to, but not a substitute for atropine, which is a symptomatic and often lifesaving antidote. DO NOT GIVE MORPHINE OR TRANQUILIZERS. At first sign of pulmonary edema, the patient should be given supplemental oxygen and treated symptomatically. Continued absorption of Malathion may occur and relapse may occur after initial improvement. Very close supervision of the patient is indicated for at least 48 hours.
