Apparently they gave some humans a regular dose to see what happens lol: A dose of 2.5 mg/day for 27 days caused a 25% decrease in red blood cell cholinesterase. In House M.D (Poison). I think they treated this with pralidoxime, but it didn't work so they used a targeted hydrolase. I think they made that experimental treatment up. I dunno lol.
