1-34140142 - The reporter, the patients aunt, indicated that her nephew was exposed to an insecticidal spray containing the active ingredient tetrachlorvinphos. The reporter indicated that three days prior to initial contact with the registrant the product was sprayed all over the home on couches, carpets, etc. The reporters (age)-year-old nephew was in the house during application. No specific exposure was described but that same day the child vomited 15 times. The patient was taken to the doctor where he was given intravenous fluids for the day but the vomiting has persisted through the week and on the day of initial contact the reporter indicated that her nephew had vomited two times. The reporter was advised that the active ingredient in this product is a very low percentage and the described symptoms would not be expected unless the product was directly ingested. On follow-up call, one day later, the reporter indicated that the child was doing a lot better. No further information is available.
