Safety Data Sheets (SDS)

Need to know the right way to work with a drug, chemical or product? Start with a safety data sheet, or SDS (formerly material safety data sheet, or MSDS). An SDS takes the guesswork out of complex safety information. Use these documents to learn about everything from health effects to instructions for safe handling and proper disposal.

*Important note: There are no SDSs or MSDSs on this website. However, you can still start your search here. Keep reading to learn how you can find the information you need.

For current McKesson customers
