HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it is all depends upon how much the pesticides being ingested and the clinical symptoms patient has, it is most advisable to see the ER and no need to take any chance or risk some time some organophosphorus compound may effects late on, so clinical observation is must, even patient has vomited out hope this information helps.
