I just answered my own question.
That pharmaceutical name matched the label on a bottle of chemicals they used to clean their koi pond, NBC News reported. The fish tank solvent that treats aquatic parasites contains the same active ingredient as the drug, but in a different form that can poison people.
I saw it sitting on the back shelf and thought, Hey, isnt that the stuff theyre talking about on TV? the wife, who was not named, told the network. We were afraid of getting sick.
