1-27153558- The reporter indicated he was exposed to an insecticide containing the active ingredient permethrin. The reporter was unable to provide label information (precise name or registration number) for the product he was calling about. He indicates a hotel where he was staying was sprayed with the product eight days preceding his initial contact with the registrant. He reports he re-entered that room two hours following application. He was unable to describe a discreet exposure incident and did not indicate an aroma was encountered. He reported within one hour of re-entry he noted the symptoms of nausea and dizziness. Two days following initially noting the described symptoms he had gone to a doctor and was diagnosed with high blood pressure. He was given medication to address his hypertension but his symptoms had persisted until the time of the initial contact with the registrant. He was concerned the symptoms may be related to the product. The caller was advised both the symptoms and the persistent nature of those symptoms were inconsistent with the toxicity profile of the active ingredient. It was recommended he continue to work with his physician to determine the cause of his symptoms and the appropriate therapy. The caller was not reached for follow up. No further information is available.
