ive studied herbalism for years now and am better than most at it, poisons in particular, mostly for their medicinal uses in modern western medicines, effects, uses, and antidotes. UNfortunately i feel my education is lacking in one particular area, specifically, their use in magic. i have mde several for my personal use, in the correct amounts herbal poisons are very effective medicinally, ( just saying, im assuming most here will already know this), for example, one i use frequently, Belladonna ( specifically, Black NIghtshade, not the Deadly), which grows everywhere around here, is a muscle relaxant, in the wrong dosage, causes cardiac arrest, ( it relaxes, ALL the muscles, lol) but in smaller doses, is very effective for muscle tension, headaches, and the like provided you are familiar with the proper amount, and are careful to use it respectfully. ( also the proper times, as the toxins are more potent during flowering, and the green berries are NEVER to be used for just about anything except killing)

SO ... anyone use poisons in any of their spells, usage for herbalism, medicines, anything? Id like to learn more about it if i could.
