(2)

8-9.
CONTINUE PROTECTIVE MEASURES
a. Put on the rest of your protective clothing (MOPP level 4). Liquid nerve
agents penetrate ordinary clothing rapidly.
b. Bury the used decontamination pads if circumstances permit.
c. Seek aid. If you have been exposed to a sufficient amount of nerve agent,
you may become unable to administer additional treatment to yourself. If so, you will
need someone else (a buddy, a combat lifesaver, or a medic) to administer additional
treatment.
d. Administer an additional NAAK, if needed. If medical assistance is not
available, 10 to 15 minutes have passed since you gave yourself the NAAK injection(s),
and the signs and symptoms of nerve agent poisoning persist, then self-administer a
second NAAK to yourself using the same procedures as for the first NAAK.
