An anti-dust process has been applied to the drug product, Zilmax®, in order to greatly reduce inhalation risk. Extended handling tasks with the potential for dust generation require respiratory protection. Wear appropriate skin protection (e.g.,impervious gloves, apron, overalls) if there is a potential for extended skin contact. Wear protective eyewear, if there is a potential for eye contact. If accidental eye contact occurs, immediately rinse with water and consult a physician.
