Abstract
Thiocyclam hydrogen oxalate (Brand name: Evisect) is an insecticide with anti-cholinergic and cholinergic properties. Although there are few case reports and a case series of human toxicity of nereistoxin analogue insecticide such as cartap hydrochloride poisoning published in the literature, poisoning with thiocyclam hydrogen oxalate (Evisect), an another analogue of nereistoxin with its own molecular formula is only heard in animals, such as Nubian goats. Herein, we report a patient presented with rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney injury without significant symptoms of acute cholinergic syndrome following self-ingestion of thiocyclam hydrogen oxalate (Evisect) and he made an uneventful recovery with prompt supportive care.
