1-23805689- The reporter calls to indicate exposure to an herbicide containing the active ingredient acetic acid. The caller states her husband had been applying the product to some acreage around their home for the two days preceding initial contact with the registrant. The caller indicates possible respiratory exposure but does not describe a discreet exposure incident. The caller indicates her husband had begun vomiting the evening of the initial contact with the registrant. He also described a sensation of a ¿¿¿hard ball in his stomach?. She wonders if this may be related to the product use. The caller was advised that the time line and symptoms described were inconsistent with respiratory exposure to this product. It was advised she seek medical attention if the symptoms persist or worsen. On routine follow up the reporter indicated her husband¿¿¿s symptoms spontaneously resolved by the next morning. No medical care was obtained. No further information is available.
