October 13, 2006, Newsletter Issue #35: Symptoms of exposure to high levels of benzene

Tip of the Week

Exposure to large amounts of benzene can cause serious illness. If you are in a situation where someone has been exposed to large quantities of benzene, remember that this product is flammable, so remove any sources of ignition. Take proper precautions to ensure your own safety before attempting rescue. Wear appropriate protective equipment. Remove the source of contamination or move victim to fresh air. If breathing has stopped, trained personnel should begin artificial respiration or, if the heart has stopped, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) immediately. Obtain medical attention immediately.
