    Sarin is a nerve gas that causes severe disruption to the nerve system. Decontamination is critically important. Nurse should wear protective clothing, including a respirator and rubber gloves. Immediately administer an auto-injector antidote of Atropine at 2 mg IM and 600 mg of Pralidoxine chloride. Use Atropine injections up to 3 times every 30 minutes. Use a mixture of with 10 cc bleach per liter of water for decontamination. Administer a Diazepam to control convulsions.
