Poisoning with an insecticide containing an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor is best managed by administration of which one of the following agents?



Answer :

Poisoning with an insecticide containing an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor as Atropine blocks the effects of increased acetylcholine resulting from cholinesterase inhibition.

Any substance that harms the body is regarded as a poison. It can be absorbed topically, inhaled in, injected intravenously, or swallowed. Overdosing on that substance can lead to poisoning, which is a bad outcome. Poisoning and envenomation are not the same thing. Acute poisoning happens when a toxin is exposed once or for a short period of time. The onset of symptoms is closely related to the level of exposure. Toxin absorption is necessary for systemic poisoning. Physostigmine indirectly activates cholinoceptors; bethanechol and pilocarpine directly activate cholinoceptors. Propanolol is a β-adrenoceptor antagonist.
