Abstract
⺠The health impact of residential pyrethroid exposure has not been evaluated fully. ⺠We examined permethrin and a common pyrethroid synergist piperonyl butoxide (PBO). ⺠Permethrin and PBO were measured in air samples prenatally and at age 5-6 years. ⺠Exposure to prenatal PBO only was associated with increased odds of cough. ⺠In utero exposure to PBO or pyrethroids may lead to cough in early childhood.
