Abstract

AVELLANEDA-CURCHO, Luis Carlos et al. Intoxication by Methemoglobinizers, type Propanil. Revista médica Risaralda [online]. 2023, vol.29, n.1, pp.119-126.  Epub Aug 22, 2023. ISSN 0122-0667.  https://doi.org/10.22517/25395203.25143.

Poisoning by propanil herbicides are common in different agricultural areas, especially in rice fields. We present the case of a farmer patient, without risk factors, who suffered a moderate intoxication by propanil. Despite the diagnostic limitations in each hospital, the suspicion and clinical data on admission may be sufficient for the diagnosis and its respective management.

Keywords : poisoning; Methemoglobinemia.
