  The parents wrote in a description of the incident that the child probably swallowed less than half a dozen (4 tablets were found at gastric lavage). Fluoride was used as insecticide and rat poison. Related patents can be found at my homepage. [fluoride-history.de]

• Aspiration

  Perform gastric aspiration and lavage. Small-bore nasogastric tube aspiration, followed by lavage, is recommended because of the potential severity of this ingestion and the ineffective adsorption of fluoride to activated charcoal. [emedicine.medscape.com]

  A summary in the Final Report stated that post mortem examination revealed aspiration of gastric contents with pulmonary necrosis and inflammation. [fluoridation.com]

  It causes irritation and inflammation of the mucus lining of gastrointestinal system. Too much of fluoride precipitates hydrofluoric acid in stomach which leads to irritation of the stomach and intestinal lining. [tandurust.com]

  Irritation of the mucosal lining of the gastrointestinal tract. Binds to calcium ions and affects utilization. Affects a number of enzymes responsible for energy production, transmission of nerve impulses and blood coagulation. [healthhype.com]

  Irritability and lethargy may also occur. If the toxicity is severe, rapid heartbeat, low blood pressure and rapid breathing may develop. [livestrong.com]

• Tremor

  Tremors. Arrhythmias. Joint stiffness. Shortness of breath ( dyspnea ). Low levels of calcium (hypocalcemia), magnesium (hypomagnesemia) and glucose (hypoglycemia) in the blood. High levels of potassium in the blood (hyperkalemia). [healthhype.com]

  Symptoms of a fluoride overdose include: Abdominal pain Abnormal taste in the mouth (salty or soapy taste) Seizures Diarrhea Drooling Eye irritation (if placed in eye) Headache Heart attack Irregular or slow heartbeat Nausea and vomiting Shallow breathing Tremors [medlineplus.gov]

  Cramps in muscles Headache Muscle weakness Tremor Stiffness of joints Palpitation Shortness of breath Rise of potassium level in body. Convulsion in case of acute poisoning. Increased risk of fractures. [tandurust.com]

• Seizure

  Symptoms of the third stage of iron toxicity include low blood pressure, fever and seizures. Liver failure may occur, causing low blood sugar, excessive or prolonged bleeding and jaundice -- yellowish eyes and skin. [livestrong.com]

  Symptoms of a fluoride overdose include: Abdominal pain Abnormal taste in the mouth (salty or soapy taste) Seizures Diarrhea Drooling Eye irritation (if placed in eye) Headache Heart attack Irregular or slow heartbeat Nausea and vomiting Shallow breathing [medlineplus.gov]

  Seizures may result from both hypomagnesemia and hypocalcemia. Severe fluoride toxicity will result in multiorgan failure. Central vasomotor depression as well as direct cardiotoxicity also may occur. [emedicine.medscape.com]

If the poisoned patient can be supported for 24 hours, the prognosis improves markedly, although delayed toxicity can occur. [link.springer.com]

Prognosis Death may result from ingesting as little as 2 g of fluoride in an adult and 16 mg/kg in children. Symptoms may appear with 3-5 mg/kg of fluoride. Estimated toxic dose for fluoride ingestion is 5-10 mg/kg. [emedicine.medscape.com]

However, an epidemiological study found that a high-fluoride area had one-fifth the Alzheimer's that a low-fluoride area had, [31] and a 2002 study found that fluoride increased the urinary excretion of aluminum. [32] References [ edit ] ^ Gosselin, RE [en.wikipedia.org]
