(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms

On August 21, 2016 the dog ingested the product, no further details were known. The dog became unresponsive and the owner contacted the Animal Product Safety Service (APSS). The APSS veterinarian stated methomyl is a carbamate that is rapidly absorbed after ingestion, but does not accumulate in the tissues. The APSS veterinarian also stated it does not "age" on the receptors like organophosphates (OP's) do, so signs are often short-lived. The APSS veterinarian additionally stated signs occur within minutes after ingestion.The APSS veterinarian finally stated if not a lethal exposure, signs are expected to resolve spontaneously due to the reversible nature of carbamate toxicity. The APSS technician recommended taking the dog to the veterinarian (provided contact information for a nearby emergency clinic) and having the veterinarian call for information.
