Severe signs of nerve agent exposure include difficulty breathing, convulsions, loss of consciousness, and muscle twitching or paralysis. Other symptoms may involve excessive salivation, sweating, nausea, and pinpoint pupils. Immediate medical attention is critical, as nerve agents can cause rapid deterioration of health. If suspected, evacuate the area and follow proper decontamination procedures.

sever signs of nerve agent
Nerve agents are chemical warfare agents that have the same mechanism of action as OP organophosphate pesticides or insecticides. They are potent inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase . Cholinergic syndrome consisting of copious respiratory and oral secretions, diarrhea and vomiting, sweating, altered mental status, autonomic instability, and generalized weakness that can progress to paralysis and respiratory arrest.The amount and route of exposure to the nerve agent or OP pesticide, the type of nerve agent or pesticide will contribute to the time of onset and the severity of illness. For example, inhalation of a nerve agent or an OP pesticide leads to a quicker onset of poisoning with more severe symptoms when compared to with dermal exposures, given the same amount of agent.
