have received large doses of bromethalin.
INHALATION: NONE
3. Treatment of cerebral edema and increased cerebrospinal fluid
INGESTION: The suggested treatment of bromethalin toxicity in the adult
pressure should be done in the hospital. Treatment of this syndrome
human can be divide into three categories. Appropriate dosages for children
would largely depend on the severity since rodent studies have shown
must be carefully adjusted according to weight. Measures to be taken are:
that these effects are reversible in large part within seven days.
1. Limit further absorption by inducing emesis. This could be done by agitat-
Treatment would involve the use of an osmotic diuretic, such as
ing the back of the throat, giving 1 or 2 tablespoons of Syrup of Ipecac, etc.
mannitrol and corticosteroid therapy (dexamethasone) and furosemide.
This should be followed by administering activated charcoal, milk, beaten
