Pediatrician,  's  Response
Its depend from person to person .The transfluthrin in the present case can lead to toxicity.It results mainly in central nervous system (CNS) symptoms like headache, dizziness, drowsiness, status epilepticus and respiratory failure. These chemicals lead to hyperexcitation of the nervous system . Cardiac dysfunction has also been described, but lung injury is not commonly reported. I suggest Charcoal 1 tablet daily for 5 days for absorption of toxins, keep him hydrated with plenty of water for desintoxication therapy.
