Abstract

Synthetic derivatives were synthesized after determining the effectiveness of the flowers of the Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium plant against insects. These synthetic derivatives are called pyrethroids. Nowadays, synthetic pyrethroids are widely used as insecticide and ectoparasitic (tick, lice, fleas, scabies). Permethrin, deltamethrin, flumethrin, cypermethrin, fenvalerate and cyfluthrin containing commercial products has been licensed for use in dogs, horses, cattle, sheep and goats in Turkey. Products containing permethrin are widely used in dogs. Mammals are generally not susceptible to pyrethroid, but cats are quite sensitive. Serious poisoning may develops in cats as a result of accidental application of pyrethroids and/or contact of cats with pyrethroids treated dogs. In this review, it could be tried to give information about pyrethroid poisoning, clinical appearance and treatments in cats.

Kedilerde Piretroid Toksikasyonu

Abstract

Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium bitkisinin çiçeklerinin böceklere karşı etkinliğinin belirlenmesinden sonra sentetik türevleri sentezlenmiştir. Sentetik türevlere piretroidler adı verilmiştir. Günümüzde sentetik piretroidler insektisit ve ektoparaziter (kene, bit, pire, uyuz) amaçla yaygın şekilde kullanılmaktadır. Türkiye’de permetrin, deltametrin, flumetrin, sipermetrin, fenvalerat ve sifulitrin içeren ticari ürünler köpek, at, sığır, koyun ve keçilerde kullanılmak üzere ruhsatlandırılmıştır. Permetrin içeren ürünler köpeklerde oldukça fazla kullanılmaktadır. Memeli türleri genellikle piretroidlere duyarlı değildir. Ancak kediler oldukça duyarlıdır. Kedilere yanlışlıkla piretroid uygulanması ve/veya piretroid uygulanan köpeklerle kedilerin temasa geçmesi sonucunda kedilerde ciddi zehirlenmeler gelişebilmektedir. Bu derlemede kedilerde gözlenen piretroid zehirlenmeleri, klinik görünümü ve tedavileri hakkında bilgiler verilmeye çalışılmıştır.
