N2  - Clinical presentation, course and management of thirteen patients of suicidal poisoning with seeds of yellow-oleander were studied. All patients who took more than two seeds had gastro-intestinal as well as cardiovascular toxic effects. Patients responded well to symptomatic and supportive treatment when they had four or less than four seeds and reported to hospital within four hours intake. Progress was bad when patients took more than four seeds and reported after four hours of intake, cause of death in all the patients was cardiogenic shock.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
