I was wondering if there is a herb that will kill you, such as a tea or medicinal drug.There are many herbs that when used inappropriately can cause death. Foxglove, the source of digitalis and related cardiac drugs, can easily cause death. In fact, in 1977 a couple mistakingly consumed a tea made with foxglove leaves and died. Stramonium (Datura stramonium) has caused many deaths. So has henbane (Hyoscyamus niger). Yet, these and many other dangerous plants are very useful medicinal plants when used by a trained health care giver.
