[Atropine poisoning from "health tea"].
A description of the case of a 57 year old woman is given who showed the symptoms of an atropine poisoning after drinking stinging nettle tea. The analyses of the tea specimen proved bad defilements among other things with elements of the "belladonna" (Atropa belladonna). Several similar reports became known recently and it seems to be necessary to discuss checking the purity of the tea species.
