David,
Some years ago at Royal Perth Hospital (Australia) we had a death (and a
near miss) with aconite poisoning. Both subjects had taken Chinese herbal
tea to cure their particular problems. I will try and dig up a reference
for you.
Regards,
Bill McConnell.

any resources or good articles that people are aware of (especially if they
have dealt with these types of cases in their institutions); More
importantly, any anecdotal cases that you have seen and had to work up
toxicologically, I would like to hear about to enhance my presentation (with
proper credit given of course to the lender)
