Abstract

Pretilachlor is one of the commonly used Chloroacetanilide herbicides all across the globe including in India. Acute intoxication with Pretilachlor has been rarely reported in the literature. Its clinical manifestations in humans can mimic more commonly encountered organophosphorus poisoning. In addition, there is a need to look for neurotoxicity and hepatotoxicity. Treatment of this poisoning is symptomatic and physicians should be aware of systemic complications.
