Coma as a presenting sign of Datura stramonium seed tea poisoning. [Journal Article]
Eur J Intern Med 2007 Jul; 18(4):336-8.
Datura stramonium is a hallucinogenic plant that causes serious poisoning. Consumption of any part of the plant may result in a severe anticholinergic reaction that may lead to toxicity and occasionally cause diagnostic difficulties. We report two patients with coma as a presenting sign of intoxication following intentional Datura seed tea ingestion and we review the leading clues for its diagnosis and treatment.
