Methomyl is a carbamate insecticide widely used in pesticides. Most of the poisoning methods are through digestive tract, respiratory tract and skin contact. At present, there is no report of poisoning caused by intramuscular injection. A case of poisoning caused by intramuscular injection of methomyl was analyzed retrospectively. About 4 minutes later, cholinergic crisis and central inhibition occurred. Venovenous-Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (VV-ECMO) and atropine were given quickly. Finally, the patient was successfully rescued and had a good prognosis. After intramuscular injection of methomyl, cholinergic crisis can occur rapidly, and the onset rate is significantly faster than that of digestive tract, respiratory tract and skin contact.

Rapid advances in vaccine technology are becoming increasingly important in tackling global health crises caused by respiratory virus infections. While traditional vaccines, primarily administered by intramuscular injection, have proven effective, they often fail to provide the broad upper respiratory tract mucosal immunity, which is urgently needed for first-line control of respiratory viral infections. Furthermore, traditional intramuscular vaccines may not adequately address the immune escape of emerging virus variants.

Diffuse Alveolar Hemorrhage (DAH) is an uncommon and potentially life-threatening occurrence in systemic lupus erythematous (SLE), involving bleeding into the alveolar space caused by the disruption of the alveolar-capillary basement membrane. We present a 24-year-old Persian woman with a complaint of progressively worsening shortness of breath following the administration of intramuscular-Rhogam after 3 days. According to her worsening clinical condition, the pregnancy was terminated.

Background: Epinephrine is the first-line treatment for anaphylaxis and is administered via intramuscular (IM) or subcutaneous (SC) injection. AQST-109, a sublingual film containing a prodrug of epinephrine, is in development as an alternative delivery method for the treatment of severe allergic reactions including anaphylaxis.
Objective: To compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of epinephrine following administration of AQST-109 to epinephrine delivered by manual IM injection and epinephrine autoinjectors (EAIs).
