Are Datura flower seeds poisonous? What are the symptoms of eating them?

Hello, glad to help you.

Datura poisoning is caused by accidentally ingesting Datura seeds, fruits, leaves and flowers.

The main ingredients are anisodamine, atropine and scopolamine. The above ingredients can excite the central nervous system, block the M-choline response system, and antagonize and paralyze the parasympathetic nerves. The main clinical manifestations are dryness of the mouth and throat, difficulty swallowing, hoarseness, rapid pulse, dilated pupils, delirium, hallucinations, convulsions, etc. In severe cases, coma, respiratory and circulatory failure and death may occur. The traditional Chinese medicinal names of Datura are goldenrod, eggplant, intoxicating grass, sunflower, bone grass, morning glory, mandrake or wild pockmark.

The whole plant is poisonous, and the seeds are the most toxic. Children can be poisoned after taking 3-8 pills.

Generally, 0.5-2 hours after oral administration, it will be completely absorbed by the oral cavity and gastric mucosa and symptoms of poisoning will appear.
