Abstract

Amitraz is a drug which is used against the external parasites of domestic animals such as lice, fleas, tick species, and scabies agents. There are no indications for use in humans. In this case report, we presented the findings related to intoxication due to the intake of amitraz via dermal and inhalation route. We tried to explain the possible complications and treatment options. Oral ingestion intoxication cases due to the amitraz use have been reported in humans. In addition, several animal experiments have been conducted, but there exists very few publications in the literature related to the amitraz intake via dermal or inhalation routein humans. Here we present a case of a second-degree AV block in an adolescent with an acute dermal and inhalational amitraz intoxication.
