What Are The Repercussions Of Drinking All Out?

default
Posted on Fri, 18 Mar 2016
Question: My friend drank a allout liquid 45 ml. The bottle shows it contains transfluthrin 1.6% w/w. He didn't tell he drank allout. But due to his dizziness we took him to doctor. Doctor said it was food poison and gave some medicine. He is feeling sleepy for past 2 days. Now only he said about drinking the allout liquid. Is it highly poisonous? Will he be safe?

Dear XXXXXXX Hi & Welcome.
Thanks for choosing Healthcaremagic for posting your query.
The "All Out" liquid is a mosquito repellent that contains insecticide Prallethrin which can cause poisoning if ingested accidentally or otherwise. It is not a food poison.
It can cause poisoning hence you are advised to take your friend to the hospital for
observation and treatment.
Hope the suggestion given above would be useful to him.
