Tetramethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid based on the natural counterpart found in chrysanthemum flowers but more stable and longer lasting. Amongst one of the most widely used insecticides, Tetramethrin is a fast acting neurotoxin used against most flying and crawling insects. It is often used in combination with other active ingredients to create a multi-action pesticide. Tetramethrin was found to inhibit various ABC and SLC drug transporters, including multidrug resistance-associated protein(MRP) 2, breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), organic anion transporter polypeptide (OATP) 1B1, organic anion transporter (OAT) 3, multidrug and toxin extrusion transporter (MATE) 1, organic cation transporter (OCT) 1 and OCT2.

Curator's Comment: Tetramethrin is practically non-toxic to birds and mammals. The LD50 in rats exceeded the testing limit of 5000 mg/kg for tests in both ingestion and dermal absorption (#EPA). In a WHO study, Male Wistar rats here given a dose of 500 mg/kg, of which 95% was metabolized and excreted within five days, indicating that tetramethrin is absorbed and secreted relatively quickly. http://www.toxipedia.org/display/toxipedia/Tetramethrin
Rats: In the uterotrophic assay using 18-d-old female Sprague-Dawley rats, subcutaneous treatment with tetramethrin (5 to 800 mg/kg/day) for 3 d led to a statistically significant decrease in absolute and relative uterine wet weights at all doses tested. Moreover, tetramethrin blocked the effect of E2 on uterine weights.

In electrically-stimulated longitudinal muscle-myenteric plexus preparations of the guinea-pig ileum, tetramethrin (1-100 uM) caused a biphasic response consisting of an early transient increase followed by a sustained decrease in the amplitude of cholinergic contractions.
