If someone swallows a lot of zinc oxide, give them water or milk right away. Do NOT give water or milk if the person is vomiting or has a decreased level of alertness. If the chemical is on the skin or in the eyes, flush with lots of water for at least 15 minutes.
But don't grab the first zinc product you see: Opt for lozenges (because they stay in the mouth longer, they're more effective than zinc syrup or pills) and steer clear of added citric or tartaric acid. These flavor boosters can decrease zinc's effectiveness, so check the label to see if they're listed as ingredients.
