Abstract

Imidacloprid is a newer insecticide belonging to the group of Neonicotinoids. Though considered to have less lethality to humans, case reports of severe manifestations are not uncommon. There has been an increasing number of cases of Imidacloprid poisoning reported from developing countries. We report a patient with neurological manifestatons following consumption of Imidacloprid and summarize the various complications reported in medical literature in order to identify predictors of outcome.
