First Aid
In case of skin contact, wash the skin thoroughly with water and soap.
In case of eye contact, immediately rinse the eyes with plenty of water for at least 15–20 minutes.
In case of ingestion, if the affected person is conscious, rinse their mouth with water and seek medical attention. DO NOT consume castor oil, milk, or fatty foods! If a toxic amount enters the body, as a first-aid measure, the patient may be given egg white to drink, which binds the copper in the form of copper albumin; however, it is important to ensure that this is subsequently removed from the stomach!

Antidote: recommended chelating agents include D-penicillamine, dimercaprol (BAL), CaNa₂-EDTA, and DMPS; in cases of penicillamine intolerance, medications containing the active ingredient trientine (e.g., Cuprior)
