Caller called a medical clinic and was advised to drink plenty of water and milk which he has done. His friend experienced dizziness, and his friend does not wish to give any other information. The call disconnected. An attempt was made to call the consumer back, and a voice message was left requesting follow up. The original caller is calling back. Caller and his friend applied the product on their vests, hats, and hands prior to entering the woods on 6/14/2022. They have both been experiencing nausea, vomiting, and dizziness.

He was seen by his doctor and blood work was done. He says the product wasn't in his blood. He was diagnosed with a nasal infection and a throat infection caused by the product on his clothing.

His friend is good, and it did not affect him as much. 6/29/2022 Call back from the original caller. He went to the doctor and was prescribed medication. For the past 2 days he has been asymptomatic.
