What Are The Repercussions Of Drinking All Out?
Question: My friend drank a allout liquid 45 ml. The bottle shows it contains transfluthrin 1.6% w/w. He didn't tell he drank allout. But due to his dizziness we took him to doctor. Doctor said it was food poison and gave some medicine. He is feeling sleepy for past 2 days. Now only he said about drinking the allout liquid. Is it highly poisonous? Will he be safe?
Brief Answer:
He should be taken to the hospital immediately.
