W4-1 Treatment of organophosphate poisoning: atropine, pralidoxime and beyond Andrew DAWSON(South Asian Clinical Toxicology Research Collaboration, University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka)Abstract:Self-poisoning with pesticides is a major problem across the Asia Pacific region. Despite this there is little coordinated effort being applied to improve the medical response to this problem. Good clinical and supportive care is the cornerstone of management of the poisoned patient and in some situations will suffice even in the absence of a specific antidote. Only one antidote, atropine for organophosphate poisoning(OP), could be clearly regarded as effective. The efficacy of oximes remains to be defined. There has been little clinical development of a large number of low cost antidotes that have been shown to be effective in animals.
