1-15883045: The reporter, a physician, called on 3/11/08 to inquire about a non-specific type of Sevin product whose active ingredient is Carbaryl. His (age) year old friend had been using this type of product for years, and had developed peripheral neuropathy. The caller was wondering if the symptoms could be incidental to occasional product contact in the labelled manner of use? The safety profile of the active ingredient was discussed, including more typical muscarinic and nicotinic signs of ataxia, incoordination, tremors, and weakness. Diagnostic cholinesterase testing was discussed, as well as the advice that the neuropathy was unlikely to be related to product use.
