Amitraz is a nonsystemic insecticide and acaricide which is sometimes also used as scabicide. Due to its widespread use, amitraz poisoning has emerged during the past decade and a half although the literatures on human intoxication cases are scarce. Amitraz poisoning can present with numerous symptoms involving central nervous, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems. The mainstay of treatment is supportive and symptomatic. We present the case of a 60-year-old gentleman who was shifted from another hospital in unconscious state with an alleged history of consumption of an unknown substance which later was known to be amitraz.
双甲脒是一种非内吸性杀虫剂和杀螨剂，有时也用作杀疥剂。由于其广泛使用，在过去十五年中出现了双甲脒中毒情况，尽管关于人类中毒病例的文献很少。双甲脒中毒可表现出涉及中枢神经、心血管和呼吸系统的多种症状。治疗的主要方法是支持性和对症治疗。我们报告一例60岁男性患者，他从另一家医院转来时处于昏迷状态，据称有摄入未知物质的病史，后来发现该物质为双甲脒。
