Caller is with the (company name) and is receiving a complaint from an office building that had a PCO come to apply Dragnet and Ficam D to the office. They did this in the floor and in the ceiling. The ceiling is actually the ventilation pleunum which the air circulates through. This was done on 6/14. The next day only a few people came back to the office and a lot of them complained of tingling lips and a funny taste in the mouth. Two of the workers went home with swelling of the face. On Monday (6/18) many workers were having the same issues. One had a rash break out on the hands and lower arms. He is unsure if any sought help from a doctor, but it is his impression that symptoms cleared quickly when the people having problems left the building (at least with those c/o tingling and metallic taste). He is aware of 11 people total that have had problems. The PCO was advised to vacuum the product from above the ceiling and since this was done yesterday he has had no further complaints or f/u from the building. Follow-up attempted on 6/21/2007. Message was left, but no return call made by original reporter.
