Specification
Oxytetracycline hydrochloride , its cas register number is 2058-46-0. It also can be called 5-Hydroxytetracycline hydrochloride ; Oxytetracycline HCl ; and [4S-(4alpha,4aalpha,5alpha,5aalpha,6beta,12aalpha)]-4-(Dimethylamino)-1,4,4a,5,5a,6,11,12a-octahydro-3,5,6,10,12,12a-hexahydroxy-6-methyl-1,11-dioxo-2-naphthacenecarboxamide monohydrochloride . It is hazardous, so the first aid measures and others should be known. Such as: When on the skin: first, should flush skin with plenty of water immediately for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing. Secondly, get medical aid. Or in the eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Then get medical aid soon. While, it's inhaled: Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. Give artificial respiration while not breathing. When breathing is difficult, give oxygen. And as soon as to get medical aid. Then you have the ingesting of the product : If victim is conscious and alert, give 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water. Get medical aid immediately. Wash mouth out with water, and get medical aid immediately. Notes to physician: Treat supportively and symptomatically.
In addition, Oxytetracycline hydrochloride (CAS NO.2058-46-0) is sensitive to light and air, and may discolor on exposure to air and light. It is not compatible with strong oxidizing agents, bases, and you must not take it with incompatible materials, light, exposure to air, exposure to moist air or water. And also prevent it to broken down into hazardous decomposition products: irritating and toxic fumes and gases. hydrogen chloride, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide.
