Characteristics

Poisoning with this drug causes raving madness. A girl who ate half an unripe fruit manifested the following: Completely out of her mind in a quarter of an hour, dizzy, sleepy, slept with eyes open, if disturbed, sprang up raving and uttered unintelligible words, *if one sang she began to dance in the Favanese fashion. This symptom may prove a keynote in certain cases of mental alienation. Dryness of mouth was also noted in this case, as with Belladonna and other Solanacea.
