Phoxim is an organophosphate insecticide that is produced by the Bayer corporation. It is an analogous dimethyl ester and an organothiophosphate acaricide.[2] It is allowed for use in limited applications in the European Union.[3] It is banned for use on crops in the European Union since 22 December 2007.[4]

It is used in veterinary medicine to treat ectoparasitic acarids.

This pesticide should be used with caution since some insects like Helicoverpa assulta become even more resistant when exposed.[5]
