    AbstractPoisoning is one of the most common reasons for acute medical admission to hospital in the UK. However, certain poisons are rarely implicated. Two unusual cases involving poisoning with atropine are presented. The clinical features were classical, but the way in which the patients became poisoned by drinking contaminated Indian tonic water was most unusual.
