NOTE TO PHYSICIAN 
Antidote: Administer atropine sulfate in large doses two to four mg. intrave­
nously or intramuscularly as soon as cyanosis is overcome. Repeat at 5 to 10 
minute intervals until signs of atropinization appear. 2-PAH chloride is also 
antidotal and may be administered in conjunction with atropine. DO NOT eIVE 
MORPHINE OR TRANQUILIZERS. Parathion is a strong cholinesterase inhibitor 
affecting the central and peripheral nervous systems and producing cardiac and 
respiratory depression. At first sign of pulmonary edema the patient should be 
given supplemental oxygen and treated symptomatically. Continued absorption of 
the poison may occur and fatal relapses have been reported after initial impro­
vement. VERY CLOSE SUPERVISION OF THE PATIENT IS INDICATED FOR AT LEAST 48 
HOURS.

All hoses, piping, tanks, and connection$ used in the aystem shall be of a type 
appropriate for the product being used and the pressure and vacuum levels 
involved. The system shall be designed and operated so that th~ concentrated 
form of this product is not under more than 25 psi of pressure at any point in 
the system beyond or downstream from a pump producing positive pressure. The 
closed system must be adequate to make necessary measurements of the product 
being used. External sight gauges shall be equipped with valves so that the 
flow of pesticide to the sight gauge can be shut off in case of breakage or 
leakage from the gauge. 
Shut-off devices must be installed on the exit end of all hoses and at sll 
disconnect points to prevent leakage of parathion when the transfer is stopped 
and the hose is removed or disconnected. If a hose carried parathion con­
centrate and has not been rinsed in accordance with the instructions in this 
section, a dry-couple shutoff device that will minimize parathion drippage to 
not more than 2 mI. per disconnect must be installed at the disconnect point. 
If the hose carried diluted-for-use parathion or rinsate solution, a reversing 
action pump or a similar system that will empty the hose and eliminate dripping 
of liquid from the end of the hose may be used as an alternative to a shut-off 
device. 
In mixing/loading operations do not pour this product from its container. 
Before opening the container, make sure that the container is resting securely 
on the ground or a sturdy support, with the top (opening) end up and approxi­
mately level. 
Remove the product from the container only by use of a vacuum-producing pump 
system connected to a probe system that is listed by the State of California 
under that State's program establishing criteria for closed-system handling of 
Toxicity Category! pesticides. Examples of r.alifornia-listed systems are the 
Chemprobe~ Model II system sold by Cherlor Mfg. Co., lac., P. O. Box 2174, 
Salinas, CA 93902, telephone 408-422-5477 or the Protect-O-Loader Model XM-l 
system sold by Protecto Mfg. Co., 20189 Firerock Road, Bend, OR 97701, telephone 
503-382-6886. The probe system shall be screwed into the threaded opening in 
the top of the container to form a watertight connection, using appropriate 
adaptors provided by the probe manufactur~r as necessary. The instructions pro­
vided by the seller of the probe system shall be followed, except that a remo­
vable probe may not be removed from the container until the container is empty 
and the container and probe have been t~oroughly rinsed as required by this sec­
tion. 
The closed-system must provide for adequate rinsing of any removable probe and 
of all containers that are not labeled for return to the registrant. Rinsing 
must be done using a liqui~. that contains no pesticide. The rinsing system must 
be capable of spray-rinsi~g the inner surface of the container. The rinse solu­
tion shall be removed from the pesticide container concurrent with th~ i~troduc­
tion of the rinse medium. The rinse solution shall go into lll.! p~stic::h mix 
tank or applicator vehicle via the closed system. 
The system shall be rinsed according to th~ specifications of ~he. manufacturer 
of the probe system, or, in the absence of such specifications, ~y mO';i:!g' at 
least one half of the container volume through the system. A ,nin;imum pressure 
of 15 psi shall be used for the spray rinse. Parathion contain.rs sh~ll be pro­
tected against excessive pressure during the container rinse operation. 
Measures shall be taken to prevent the spray rinse procedure from cau~ing an 
increase in pressure on the inside of the container walls of more tha.l 5 psi.
