dear docter my child (doghter )swallon the mosquito repllent oil last week .with in a hour he got lot of fits @(leg and hand or shaking ) also we send hospital and they are not assured to give any word and they told lot brain injury , how we recover my doghter
Reclothe toxicity is due to the parathyroid component and its oil base. Neurotoxicity is the most common toxicity after ingestion of mosquito repellant(due to parathyroid component). Due to its oil base there is increased chance of aspiration chemical pneumonitis. There is no specific antidote available. Antiepileptic medication along with oxygen or ventilatory support is the mainstay of management. The cause of brain injury in your child may be due to repeated seizures. Controlling seizure will help in further brain injury. The outcome will depend on the recovery over a period of time. Regards
