1-33587267 - The reporter indicated that her son was exposed to an herbicide containing the active ingredients 2,4-D and Mecoprop-p. The reporter states that six days prior to initial contact with the registrant her (age) year old son had access to this product for a period of about 30 seconds during that time frame he was seen putting his hands in the bag of herbicide and then throwing the product up in the air. No product ingestion was witnessed and the reporter did not see any product in her sons mouth after the exposure. The following day the skin on her sons hands was cracked and peeling and that evening her son started vomiting. She took her son to a doctor 24 hours after the exposure and the doctor indicated that the child had burns in his throat. At the time of initial contact, the reporter stated that her son had suffered from several seizures and she was currently on her way to the emergency room. The reporter was advised that the product has a wide margin of safety and seizures are not consistent with the described exposure. On follow-up call, one day later, the reporter indicated that her son has now been to 3 different doctors but he has not been admitted to the hospital. The most recent doctor indicated that he thought the patient was suffering from rigors not seizures. One of the doctors believes that her son has pneumonia based on x-ray findings of something in the lower lobe of one lung but the other two doctors do not agree with a diagnosis of pneumonia. There is some blood in her sons urine, the underlying cause for this is unknown, but the doctors do not believe the blood is from a urinary tract infection. Caller also states that her son has been suffering from an intermittent fever of 104F. He has been treated with an unknown antibiotic but per the reporter there does not seem to be much improvement with this medication. The reporter was advised that the described symptoms are not consistent with the described exposure. No further information is available.
