Abstract
Amitraz, 1,5 di-(2,4-dimethylphenyl)-3-methyl-1,3,5-triaza-penta-1,4-diene, a formamidine pesticide, is used worldwide. It causes side-effects in animals that resemble those caused by pure alpha 2-adrenergic agonist drugs such as clonidine. Data on poisonings in humans are scanty. We report on a case of human poisoning with amitraz with typical signs of alpha 2-adrenoreceptor stimulation.Entities:
