There is no specific antidote available for rotenone or rotenoids. Treatment relies upon symptomatic and supportive measures (including oxygen and artificial
respiration). Wash contaminated skin to decontaminate
rotenone residue. Avoid emesis if convulsions a
present or the ingested product has petroleum distillate.
Perform gastric lavage, followed by the administration
of a slurry of activated charcoal in water. Control seizures
and agitation with diazepam and correct hypoglycemia
with glucose (5%, IV).
