Deltamethrin intoxication is uncommon throughout the world. The toxicity of insecticides containing pyrethroids is considered relatively lower than that of other insecticides such as compounds containing organophosphate. Acute deltamethrin poisoning due to oral ingestions is relatively rare. This report describes a case of a 32-year-old woman admitted to the emergency department (ED) with irritability, muscle cramps, discomfort, sensation of burning, loss of sensation in her feet and arms and dyspnea due to deltamethrin ingestion. Deltamethrin intoxication should be considered as a differential diagnosis in patients presented to ED with nonspecific neurological symptoms. The supportive treatment in acute phase of intoxication is critical in the management of these patients since higher doses of deltamethrin ingestion may cause severe symptoms (Tab. 2, Ref. 16).
