abstract="In recent months, more and more reports have appeared about datura seed poisoning. Datura is widespread and has hallucinogenic properties. It is part of the increase in drug use among the younger generation that is experimenting with intoxicants. The hallucinogenic and poisonous effects of datura involve the presence of tropine alkaloids: atropine and scopolamine. They both have similar effects, suppressing the parasympathetic peripheral nervous system. In large doses they lead to death as a result of respiratory paralysis. Treatment addresses the symptoms. In order to eliminate toxic effects of atropine, an antagonistic medication such as neostigmine is given.<p /> <p>Language: pl</p>",
