Protective Equipment: Full fire-resistant clothing, self-contained breathing apparatus
Special Procedures: Prevent runoff from fire control measures from entering sewers or water sources
Personal Precautions: Use gloves, lab coat, chemical splash goggles, dust mask if powder forms
Environmental Precautions: Prevent spillage from reaching drains, soil, or water sources
Containment Methods: Absorb with inert material like sand or vermiculite, collect into sealed container for disposal
Cleanup Procedures: Wash the area with soap and water, ventilate area well
Handling: Work under chemical fume hood or well-ventilated area, avoid breathing dust, avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing, wash hands thoroughly after use
Storage: Keep container tightly closed in a cool, dry place, store away from incompatible chemicals such as strong oxidizers, acids or bases, prevent exposure to sunlight and moisture
Special Precautions: Limit exposure, store in clearly labeled containers, do not use storage areas for food or drink
Exposure Limits: No established occupational exposure limits exist for Tolterodine L-Tartrate
Engineering Controls: Facilities should have eyewash stations and safety showers nearby, ensure adequate ventilation

Hygiene Measures: Wash hands, forearms, exposed areas after handling, remove contaminated clothing
Appearance: White to off-white crystalline powder
Odor: Practically odorless
Solubility: Slightly soluble in water, soluble in methanol and ethanol
pH: Slightly acidic in aqueous solution
Melting Point: 210–215°C
Boiling Point: Decomposes before boiling
Vapor Pressure: Not considered volatile
Partition Coefficient (Log P): Data not available due to ionic tartrate content

Reactivity: No hazardous reactions with most common substances under normal conditions
Conditions to Avoid: Excessive heat, direct sunlight, moisture, incompatible chemicals (strong oxidizers, acids, bases)
Hazardous Decomposition Products: May produce oxides of carbon, nitrogen-containing gases upon thermal decomposition
Incompatible Materials: Strong oxidizing materials, strong acids and bases
Acute Oral Toxicity: LD50 values in animals fall between 500–2000 mg/kg (species dependent)
Routes of Exposure: Inhalation, skin absorption, ingestion, eye contact
Symptoms of Exposure: Drowsiness, dry mouth, blurred vision, gastrointestinal discomfort, rarely allergic reactions
Long-term Risks: Studies have not shown mutagenicity or carcinogenicity at typical clinical exposure levels
Other Effects: Prolonged contact may increase risk of symptoms, especially with pre-existing health concerns
Fate and Distribution: Expected to have limited mobility in soil and water due to low solubility
Persistence and Degradability: Not readily biodegradable in the environment
Aquatic Toxicity: Potential toxic effects on aquatic life in concentrated forms
Bioaccumulative Potential: Low potential for bioaccumulation
Other Adverse Effects: Disposal or uncontrolled release could have negative impact on water sources, seek minimization
