“Othalanga” is a poisonous fruit of a herb (Cerbera odollum) grown widely in marsh and swamp area. In Alappuzha district of our country several die every year by consuming this, either accidently or with the purpose of suicide or homicide. Modern medicine has no antidote or any treatment for this, due to unawareness of this poison. An elaborate study on the details of “Cerbera odollum” and effective treatment for this poisoning is essential and solicited.
