SECTION 4: First aid measures
Description of necessary first-aid measures
Move the victim into fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration and consult a doctor immediately. Do not use mouth to mouth resuscitation if the victim ingested or inhaled the chemical.
Take off contaminated clothing immediately. Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a doctor.
Rinse with pure water for at least 15 minutes. Consult a doctor.
Rinse mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a doctor or Poison Control Center immediately.
Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayed
no data available
Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Treatment of metoclopramide overdosage generally involves symptomatic and supportive care. There is no specific antidote for metoclopramide intoxication; however, agents with central anticholinergic activity (eg, diphenhydramine, benztropine) may be useful in controlling extrapyramidal reactions. Following acute ingestion of the drug, the stomach should be emptied immediately. If the patient is comatose, having seizures, or lacks the gag reflex, gastric lavage may be performed if an endotracheal tube with cuff inflated is in place to prevent aspiration of gastric contents. Symptoms of metoclopramide overdosage are generally self-limiting and usually subside within 24 hours. Appropriate therapy should be instituted if hypotension or excessive sedation occurs. Methemoglobinemia should be treated with methylene blue. However, in patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) deficiency, methylene blue can induce hemolytic anemia, which may be fatal. Hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis is unlikely to enhance the elimination of metoclopramide.
SECTION 5: Firefighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
Water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide or foam as appropriate for surrounding fire and materials.
Specific hazards arising from the chemical
no data available
Special protective actions for fire-fighters
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
SECTION 6: Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing mist, gas or vapours.Avoid contacting with skin and eye. Use personal protective equipment.Wear chemical impermeable gloves. Ensure adequate ventilation.Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.
Environmental precautions
Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up
Wear approved respiratory protection, chemically compatible gloves and protective clothing. Wipe up spillage or collect spillage using a high efficiency vacuum cleaner. Avoid breathing dust. Place spillage in appropriately labelled container for disposal. Wash spill site.
SECTION 7: Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Metoclopramide hydrochloride tablets, injection, and oral solution should be stored at controlled room temperature between 20-25 deg C. Metoclopramide hydrochloride tablets and metoclopramide hydrochloride oral solution should be stored in tight, light-resistant containers (ie, amber glass bottles).
SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection
Control parameters
no data available
no data available
Appropriate engineering controls
Ensure adequate ventilation. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Set up emergency exits and the risk-elimination area.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment (PPE)
Wear tightly fitting safety goggles with side-shields conforming to EN 166(EU) or NIOSH (US).
Wear fire/flame resistant and impervious clothing. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.
If the exposure limits are exceeded, irritation or other symptoms are experienced, use a full-face respirator.

SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
no data available
Chemical stability
Metoclopramide hydrochloride is photosensitive and will degrade when exposed to light. Commercially available preparations of metoclopramide hydrochloride should be protected from light.

Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 25 was calculated in fish for metoclopramide(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.62(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
Mobility in soil
The Koc of metoclopramide is estimated as 120(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.62(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that metoclopramide is expected to have high mobility in soil. The pKa of metoclopramide is 9.27(4), indicating that this compound will almost entirely exist in the cation form in the environment and cations generally do adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(5).
Other adverse effects
no data available
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
