Ativisa plant is herbaceous and perennial and is one of the poisonous species used in Indian Ayurvedic medicines. However, it is certainly not the most poisonous plant or extract from the plant used in Ayurvedic medicines. The poison in this plant is reduced by specific Ayurvedic processes which may entail boiling Ativisa’s roots in cow’s urine.
