1 jan 1762 ano - Wolf's Bane / Aconite

Descrição:

Around in ancient times as an incredibly lethal poison, especially when hunting wolves as the name suggests, the Aconite flower is hardly able to be considered a drug outside of traditional Chinese medicine. Rapidly inducing nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and a combined numbness, burning and tingle in the mouth, face and stomach, even mild poisonings are quite severe. More severe cases will lead to very pronounced motor weakness, feelings of numbness and tingling of the skin, low blood pressure, abnormally low heart rate, and irregular heart rhythm. Poisoning can also be followed by any combination of: sweating, dizziness, breathing difficulty, headaches, and confusion. The heart trouble is actually the prime cause of death, leading to cardiac arrest. However, post-mortem, death presents as asphyxia rather than a heart issue.
